Motivational Quotes of the Day

[Today's Quotes] [Archive Index]

Selected from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations - August 27, 2008

It has been my experience that one cannot, in any shape or form, depend on human relations for lasting reward. It is only work that truly satisfies.: Bette Davis (1908 - 1989), The Lonely Life, 1962
The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.: Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)
The longest journey is the journey inward.: Dag Hammarskjold (1905 - 1961)
The only people who can change the world are people who want to. And not everybody does.: Hugh Macleod, How To Be Creative: 17. Merit can be bought. Passion can't. , 08-22-04
