Motivational Quotes of the Day

[Today's Quotes] [Archive Index]

Selected from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations - December 24, 2012

Be neither too remote nor too familiar.: Prince Charles (1948 - ), of Wales
Remember that what you believe will depend very much on what you are.: Noah Porter (1811 - 1892)
Do not pursue what is illusory - property and position: all that is gained at the expense of your nerves decade after decade and can be confiscated in one fell night. Live with a steady superiority over life - don't be afraid of misfortune, and do not yearn after happiness; it is after all, all the same: the bitter doesn't last forever, and the sweet never fills the cup to overflowing.: Alexander Solzhenitsyn (1918 - )
Life is a reciprocal exchange. To move forward, you have to give back.: Oprah Winfrey (1954 - ), Stanford Commencement Adress, 2008
