Well, spring sprang. We've had our state of grace and our little gift of sanctioned madness, courtesy of Mother Nature. Thanks, Gaia. Much obliged. I guess it's time to get back to that daily routine of living we like to call normal.

David Assael, Northern Exposure, Spring Break, 1991

Do what you love, love what you do, leave the world a better place and don't pick your nose.

Jeff Mallett, Frazz, 08-03-04

Most of you have been where I am tonight. The crash site of unrequited love. You ask yourself, How did I get here? What was it about? Was it her smile? Was it the way she crossed her legs, the turn of her ankle, the poignant vulnerability of her slender wrists? What are these elusive and ephemeral things that ignite passion in the human heart? That's an age-old question. It's perfect food for thought on a bright midsummer's night.

Martin Sage and Sybil Adelman, Northern Exposure, The Bumpy Road to Love, 1991

Dreams are postcards from our subconscious, inner self to outer self, right brain trying to cross that moat to the left. Too often they come back unread: "return to sender, addressee unknown." That's a shame because it's a whole other world out there--or in here depending on your point of view.

Dennis Koenig and Jordan Budde, Northern Exposure, Roots, 1991

Einstein said God doesn't play dice with the universe, but I don't know--maybe not as a whole, but I think he gets a pretty big kick out of messing in peoples' back yards.

Dennis Koenig and Jordan Budde, Northern Exposure, Roots, 1991

The idea of an election is much more interesting to me than the election itself...The act of voting is in itself the defining moment.

Jeff Melvoin, Northern Exposure, Democracy in America, 1992

- More quotations on: [Democracy]

There is nothing sadder in this world than the waste of human potential. The purpose of evolution is to raise us out of the mud, not have us grovelling in it.

Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, Cicely, 1992

- More quotations on: [Evolution]

Any transition serious enough to alter your definition of self will require not just small adjustments in your way of living and thinking but a full-on metamorphosis.

Martha Beck, O Magazine, Growing Wings, January 2004

- More quotations on: [Change]

You can take from every experience what it has to offer you. And you cannot be defeated if you just keep taking one breath followed by another.

Oprah Winfrey (1954 - ), O Magazine, What I Know For Sure, January 2004

- More quotations on: [Defeat]

That consciousness is everything and that all things begin with a thought. That we are responsible for our own fate, we reap what we sow, we get what we give, we pull in what we put out. I know these things for sure.

Madonna (1958 - ), O Magazine, January 2004

- More quotations on: [Fate]
