Quote

There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.

~Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Quote

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.

By Helen Keller

“The nectarine, and curious peach,
Into my hands themselves do reach;
Stumbling on melons, as I pass,
Ensnared with flowers, I fall on grass.”



Andrew Marvell

“Training is everything.
The peach was once a bitter almond;
cauliflower is nothing
but cabbage with a college education.”

Mark Twain quotes

Quotes

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”

Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard:

A wise man can see more from the bottom of a well
than a fool can from a mountain top.

~Author Unknown

I believe that all wisdom consists in caring immensely
for a few right things, and not caring a straw about the rest.

~John Buchan
