Elie Wiesel

Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself. 

Barbara Crooker

...[T]his has been a day of grace
in the dead of winter,
the hard knuckle of the year,
a day that unwrapped itself
like an unexpected gift,
and the stars turn on,
order themselves
into the winter night.

--an excerpt from "Ordinary Life" (2001)

Mama Zara Kushandwizdom

Create positive space around you,
even if its in your mind.
You must have an environment of good energy,
in order to give that.

John Muir

We all travel the milky way together, trees and men...trees are travellers, in the ordinary sense. They make journeys, not very extensive ones, it is true: but our own little comes and goes are only little more than tree-wavings -- many of them not so much.

Abraham Hicks

Your work is not to make it happen, your work is to let it happen. And you let it happen by possibility thinking, not negative thinking...by hopeful thinking, not doubtful thinking...by believing it will come, rather than doubting it will come...By talking yourself into feeling good!
