Some great quotes!!?

Question

Hey everyone!

I am looking for some great quotes on beautiful mind, soul or heart. You can add some wonderful poems etc as well. Please be as genuine as possible. Please add name of author and source. We must respect original copyright. Last thing: no fun here please. Please don't use this question to earn points.

Thanks & 3 cheers to everyone.

I have seen some great replies. Thanks to everyone. Please try to use words "beautiful mind" or "beautiful soul" or "beautiful heart"as much as possible in your resposes.

12:40 PM IST (7:10 GMT + 5:30)Thanks everyone once again! So my expectations were not wrong. Not many such quote exists. I had tried searching on the net as well as in my small collection of books.

Though all answers below are great but I am still looking for more and better. I am not looking for long poems. May be just a single line quote or a small poem just like waka, Japanese format of small poems of not more than 4 lines. So please continue making efforts.

Hope I will find an impressive answer soon.

Answer 1

Joy is sometimes a blessing, but it is often a conquest. Our magic moment helps us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams. Yes, we are going to suffer, we will have difficult times, and we will experience many disappointments—but all of this is transitory; it leaves no permanent mark. And one day we will look back with pride and faith at the journey we have taken.

Answer 2

Here is a bit of Prose for you...

I wrote it, it is about my youngest son and "The true kind." of love only found in the "beautiful" heart of a child .

Sorry, I misunderstood and posted before realizing that you meant for it to literally say "beautiful" something. Hope this will do?

The True kind.


You sit and mock
the stylings of Kidd Rock
knowing at three that
he is ridiculous, that
makes you hysterical.
You are my laughter
my smiles to myself
leaving everyone around me
to wonder
what this secret happiness is
that I have found.
It is you my little bumblebee
buzzing around happily.
Nothing effects you
it's all ok
nothing corrects you
you know when you are
doing wrong
and say it out loud
'I did that, and I'll do it again.'
always learning,
Hiding the earrings
I have still never found
like a Siamese cat
fascinated by shiny little metal things
in the hooped shape of cause and effect.
Silly, loving, little one
ferocious little lion cub
roaring and laughing out loud
at the utter humor in everything
like Buddha
you are beyond your own understanding
I love you!
You are all I have ever known of it
in the truest sense
the real love
the honest kind
unconditional.

"It is no slight thing when they that love us, are so fresh from God." Dickens

Where I Stand
Here I stand,
Until the time
Was it a crime to see what cannot be touched
Hear voices speak words that can't be undone
Was it my fault I was invincible
To the naked eye, I am invisible
I cannot be seen
Because no one wants to see me
I am different
Different from the rest of them
So they ignore me
But I don't ignore them
No one is friendly
Why were they so blind
Because I am not them
I am only mine
I am different
But I can see
But they can't see me
I watch them fall
Divided they fall
Together they die
But here I stand
Until the end of time
Was it a crime that I was unique
Original to the human mind
I was invisible to there standards
Invisible to their lies
But as they kneel to beg
I watch them beg
But here I stand until the end of time
Was it a crime for me to live my life
A crime for wanting to survive
No one would answer
So I will wait until the end of time

Answer 6

Go find a copy of Time Enough for Love by Robert Heinlein. It has two chapters, called IIRC, Interlude 1 and Interlude 2, which should be a gold mine for you. They were also published separately as The Notebooks of Lazarus Long; see if you can find a copy of the illuminated version done by DF Vassalo in a used book store.
