My Favorite Quotes:

1. "
We allow our ignorance to prevail upon us and make us think we can survive alone, alone in patches, alone in groups, alone in races, even alone in genders." Maya Angelou

2. "
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy. "
Anne Frank, Diary of a Young Girl, 1952

3. "
True love brings up everything - you're allowing a mirror to be held up to you daily."
Jennifer Aniston, O Magazine, February 2004

4. "
Beauty? Let me tell you something - being thought of as 'a beautiful woman' has spared me nothing in life. No heartache, no trouble. Love has been difficult. Beauty is essentially meaningless and it is always transitory."
Halle Berry

5. "
Just because you love someone doesn't mean you have to be involved with them. Love is not a bandage to cover wounds."
Hugh Elliott, Standing Room Only weblog, February 16, 2004

6. "Courage is fear that has said its prayers." Dorothy Bernard

7. "No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem." Booker T. Washington 1865-1915

8. "Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names."

9. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all doing direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."

Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

10. "Hope is the thing with feathersThat perches in the soul.And sings the tuneWithout the words,and never stops at all."
Emily Dickinson

11. "Every man is guilty of all the good he didn't do."
Voltaire

12. "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity."
Dorothy Parker

13. "If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do."
Angelina Jolie
