Motivational Quotes of the Day

[Today's Quotes] [Archive Index]

Selected from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations - April 20, 2008

Fall seven times, stand up eight.: Japanese Proverb
The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with great caution.: J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997
If I have learnt anything, it is that life forms no logical patterns. It is haphazard and full of beauties which I try to catch as they fly by, for who knows whether any of them will ever return?: Margot Fonteyn (1919 - 1991)
If we fall, we don't need self-recrimination or blame or anger - we need a reawakening of our intention and a willingness to recommit, to be whole-hearted once again.: Sharon Salzberg, O Magazine, The Power of Intention, January 2004
