I have nothing to say today. Instead, let me share some wisdom I was able to file from previous readings I did and movies I have watched. “Be Niggards of Advice on no Pretence; For the worst Avarice is that of Sense: With mean Complacence ne'er betray your Trust, Nor be so Civil as to prove Unjust; Fear not the Anger of the Wise to raise; Those best can bear Reproof, who merit Praise.” - An Essay on Criticism (Alexander Pope) You wanna see a miracle, son? BE THE MIRACLE. - Bruce Almighty Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes. -Bruce Almighty Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you, too, can become great. - Mark Twain I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It’s all a question of how I view my life. - Eleven Minutes (Paulo Coelho) Why do you always asks questions for which you already know the answer? - X-Men Parents shouldn’t leave their kids…unless they have to. -Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Why don’t we hunt humans anymore? It’s too easy. - Donna Boyd (The Passion) In wilderness is the survival of the soul. -Donna Boyd (The Passion) In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.Drive your cart and your plow over the bones of the dead.The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.Prudence is a rich ugly old maid courted by Incapacity.He who desires but acts not, breeds pestilence.The cut worm forgives the plow.Dip him in the river who loves water. -The Proverbs of Hell ( from The Marriage of Heaven and Hell by William Blake) |
