Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

You can't jump down the stairs in one leap, however much you might wish to, and you even more surely can't jump up it, but one step and then the next and there you are, at the top or the bottom and not a bit out of breath or discomposed.: Elizabeth Aston, The Exploits & Adventures of Miss Alethea Darcy, 2005
Mountains inspire awe in any human person who has a soul. They remind us of our frailty, our unimportance, of the briefness of our span upon this earth. They touch the heavens, and sail serenely at an altitude beyond even the imaginings of a mere mortal.: Elizabeth Aston, The Exploits & Adventures of Miss Alethea Darcy, 2005

There was no escaping by means of any journey, however adventurous, one took one's problems and sorrows with one.: Elizabeth Aston, The Exploits & Adventures of Miss Alethea Darcy, 2005
It is all very well, when the pen flows, but then there are the dark days when imagination deserts one, and it is an effort to put anything down on paper. That little you have achieved stares at you at the end of the day, and you know the next morning you will have to scrape it down and start again.: Elizabeth Aston, The True Darcy Spirit, 2006
- More quotations on: [Art]
We have to have the money to do the work we want to do, as well as to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. Fat commissions are good, but not always easy to come by, and each new painting takes its time. So we need to find every way possible to earn extra income from our work.: Elizabeth Aston, The True Darcy Spirit, 2006
The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself. If you have a secret, you have only to whisper it to your dearest friend with the strictest injunction that it will go no further, and within half a day the story is all over town, and when you do make what would seem to be a perfectly sensible remark, you will find it reported in the most grotesque form, thus incurring no end of criticism to rebound upon you.: Elizabeth Aston, The Darcy Connection, 2008

One's life is not as fixed as one believes. Surprises may lie in store for you, the unexpected often tends to happen, sometimes bringing in its train the most delightful change in one's life or circumstances.: Elizabeth Aston, The Darcy Connection, 2008
As if a woman ever loved a man for his virtue.: W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965), The Painted Veil, 1925
Forever is composed of nows.: Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)
The thought manifests as the word; The word manifests as the deed; The deed develops into habit; And habit hardens into character; So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let it spring from love Born out of concern for all beings… As the shadow follows the body, As we think, so we become.: Buddha (563 BC - 483 BC), Dhammapada
