Guest guest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 These are just a few of some very powerful Quotes I have read lately from a book by Gillian Stokes called " Personal Power " wisdom from around the world. I really enjoyed reading these and would like to share just a few that stood out to me... 1. .What lies in our power to do, it lies in our power not to do. (Aristole) 2. We must not weep for what we might have been. There is still time. ( Matchett) 3. Things are neither good nor bad but thinking makes them so. ( Shakespeare) 4. There is just one life for each of us: Our own. (Euripides) 5. Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. (Ralph Waldo Emerson) 6. To achieve what you have never achieved, do what you have never done. (Anonymous) 7. Sometimes it is more important to discover what one cannot do, than what one can. ( LinYutang ) 8. To know oneself, one should assert oneself. ( Albert Camus) 9.Nothing would be done at all if a man waited until he could do it so well that one one could find fault with it. (Cardinal Newman ) 10. Life is like a bridge, cross over it but build no house on it. (Indian Proverb) 11.My success is measured by my willingness to keep trying. (Anonymous) This little book has so many of these, it was hard to pick out a few. I hope you all enjoy these as much as I have.... ~~Kallie~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
