Hi guys! Any food for the heart and brain? Give me a quote that moves you or best describes you. it can be: The greatest words of your hero from a book from a poem from a friend from a music etc. Mine is from the song the greatest love of all by whitney houston. I know its very long..but its so reach and full of meaning.. I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way show them all the beauty they posses inside give them a sense of pride to make it easier let the children's laugter remind us how we used to be I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, If I succeed at least I live as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all is happening to me I found the greatest love of all inside of me The greatest love of all is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all And if by chance that special place That you've been dreaming of Leads you to a lonely place Find your strength in love This song make me strong..body and soul.. How about you?

Here are two from Aldous Huxley: Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. That all men are created equal is a proposition to which, at ordinary times, no sane individual has ever given his assent.

We are equal under the law (at least we are supposed to be). We are all equal in the sense that we are all human beings and we share one planet. But we do not all start our lives equal in terms of opportunity. Some are born with inherited wealth and privilege. Some are gifted with great physical or intellectual talents. In that respect, here is another quote for you, from Damon Runyan: "The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong-- but that's the way to bet."

I agree with the first one.. but in second one I have a different views. Yes we are all made equal.. in that sense only..not literally.. Yes some are good than others but even the dummies person in the world know something that the brightest guy don't..that make them equal..for the brightest person will happy trade all the knowledge he knows to learn what the dummies person knows Get my point?

I have the following quotes: "My soul is restless until it finds rest in Thee. Too late came I to know Thee, O Beauty both ancient and ever new..." - Augustine "No greater love than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." - Jesus (John 15:13) "Do to others as you would have them do to you," - Luke 6:31 This makes me think and meditate about the true wisdom and joy that I have found in life not only in this quote but also its author. Cheers

Hi Bulasktika, I don't tend to remember quotes very much but there was one I read at the start of a Dean Koontz book once which stuck with me. I have no idea where he got it from but it goes (from memory): [i]Take hand and hold it tight I will not fail you here tonight For if I fail you I fail myself And put my soul upon a shelf In Hell's library without a light I will not fail you here tonight[/i] I think it stuck with me because it is sort of an idea of friendship and having that connection with someone is so special to me, that this quote is wonderful. That and is was pretty easy to remember which probably helped it lol. All the best, Dranz

normality is in the eye of the beholder... why the heck would i want to be in someones eye? some people are like slinkies; not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down stairs Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero -Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow Amor anim arbitrio sumitur, non punitur -we choose to love, we do not choose to cease loving

"The past is history, the future is a mystery and today is a gift. That is why it is called the present." That's from Kung Fu Panda I think.

One quote that sticks out in my mind is "If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything." I think that it's from Malcolm X. I'm not sure, though.
