I just read a brilliant quote and thought it might pass the time to share our favourites!
Today mine is "Friendship is fun, and a loose mutual aid society" Martha Gellhorn - War Correspondant - 1983 |

I think it is just terrible and disgusting how everyone has treated Lance Armstrong, especially after what he achieved, winning seven Tour de France races while on drugs. When I was on drugs, I couldn’t even find my bike.- willie Nelson |

'The best antidote for fear is knowledge'
'It's better to be a lion for a day than a sheep all your life'
'Life has bigger plans for you than you can possibly know'
And my favourite
"Newborn children represent perfection and the state of being to which each of us is duty-bound yo return. In the instant after you were born, you were fearless, pure love, innocent, infinitely wise, of boundless potential and beautifully connected with the unseen hand that created the universe. Most of us on the planet today have lost this connection to out authentic selves, this original state of being in which we were unafraid to walk toward possibility and reach for the stairs. We have forgotten who we are."
All quotes came from R. Sharma book "The monk who sold his ferrari"
I highly recommend this book
Its my Bible these crazy days |

If I were running ‘The View’, I’d fire Rosie O’Donnell. I mean, I’d look at her right in that fat, ugly face of hers, I’d say “Rosie, you’re fired.

There’s a heart within her that begs to love
but she has it safely locked away
She keeps the key in her pocket, but she never reaches for it
it’s just there to remind her
of all the reasons to keep the door locked tight |

Each one of us see the world through our own unique set of filters, which represent our mental model. This 'stained glass window of the mind' colours how we see the world and what we believe about ourselves. Leadership of our lives require us to realise that the way we see the world isn't necessarily a true reflection of the facts.
Love that book.  |

Yeah, I’m a big fan. I recognised the quote from the newsletter. It’s a brilliant site.
If you get a chance try and find a Hunter S Thompson letter I think it’s called “a man has to be something” it’s one of my favourites |

I listened to that talk recently. Baz Lurhman didn’t say that though. He put the music to it. It was Mary Schmich who wrote that. |

As you sow, so shall you reap. To receive happiness, peace, love, and friendship, one must BE happy, peaceful, loving, and a true friend. Whatever one puts out into the Universe will come back to them. |

I look at life like this ????
"I respect kindness in human beings first of all, and kindness to animals. I have total disregard for the law; I have a total irreverence for anything connected with society except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer."
Brendan Behan. |
