Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

The stream is as good as at first; the little rubbish it collects in the turnings is easily moved away.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Age]
Facts or opinions which are to pass through the hands of so many, to be misconceived by folly in one, and ignorance in another, can hardly have much truth left.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Gossip]
I would rather have young people settle on a small income at once, and have to struggle with a few difficulties together, than be involved in a long engagement.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Marriage]
We certainly do not forget you as soon as you forget us. It is, perhaps, our fate rather than our merit. We cannot help ourselves. We live at home, quiet, confined, and our feelings prey upon us. You are forced on exertion. You have always a profession, pursuits, business of some sort or other, to take you back into the world immediately, and continual occupation and change soon weaken impressions. All the privilege I claim for my own sex (it is not a very enviable one; you need not covet it), is that of loving longest, when existence or when hope is gone.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Love] [Men And Women]
When any two young people take it into their heads to marry, they are pretty sure by perseverance to carry their point, be they ever so poor, or ever so imprudent, or ever so little likely to be necessary to each other's ultimate comfort.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Marriage]
To flatter and follow others, without being flattered and followed in turn, is but a state of half enjoyment.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Persuasion, 1818
- More quotations on: [Friendship]
Ruminating about the past is like trying to drive backward to undo a car accident.: Julie A., M.A. Ross and Judy Corcoran, Joint Custody with a Jerk: Raising a Child with an Uncooperative Ex, 2011
- More quotations on: [The Past]
When you get angry at your ex, only about 10 percent of your anger can be attributed to the current situation. The other 90 percent comes from your past experiences with your ex, as well as those with your parents, caregivers, and other significant people in your past. The current situation has simply triggered your past anger and allowed it to resurface. It’s been said that if you’re hysterical, the cause is probably historical.: Julie A., M.A. Ross and Judy Corcoran, Joint Custody with a Jerk: Raising a Child with an Uncooperative Ex, 2011
- More quotations on: [The Past]
When you understand that your feelings are triggered by what you think about an event and not by the event itself, you gain a measure of control. Although you cannot control the things (events) that happen to you, or change your feelings (after all, you feel the way you feel), you can change your thoughts. A change in thoughts often radically alters your feelings.: Julie A., M.A. Ross and Judy Corcoran, Joint Custody with a Jerk: Raising a Child with an Uncooperative Ex, 2011
- More quotations on: [Emotions]
If you continue to expend your energy trying to change things that don’t really matter in the long run or that are not within your sphere of influence, you’ll wind up exhausted and frustrated, with no positive results to show for your effort.: Julie A., M.A. Ross and Judy Corcoran, Joint Custody with a Jerk: Raising a Child with an Uncooperative Ex, 2011
