I love quotes, and it's really hard for me to decide which one I like the most. It depends a lot on the mood that I am in at a specific moment.
Here are three that I like right NOW!
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference.
-Reinhold Niebuhr
One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.

A man never stands so tall as when he bends down to help a child.

A true understanding and humble estimate of oneself is the highest and most valuable of all lessons. To take no account of oneself, but always to think well and highly of others is the highest wisdom and perfection. Should you see another person openly doing evil, or carrying out a wicked purpose, do not on that account consider yourself better than him, for you cannot tell how long you will remain in a state of grace. We are all frail, consider none more frail than yourself.

" I wish I knew how to quit you" Broke Back Moutain!
I wish I could have used that on ex boyfriends!
I wrote this "Heaven on earth is when we wake up to peace!
Healing for the soul is when there is no such thing as
selfishness.
Freedom of the mind is when we all make a
Difference.
The difference is, heaven, healing and freedon don't
Exist!"

I have two:
From an interview with Jim Carrey: "Madness is as close as saying 'yes' to the wrong impulse."
And I don't know where I heard this: "Power is nothing without control."

"This Too Shall Pass"
"You are unique of all God's Creatures"
"Treat others the way you would like to be treated yourself"
Too bad most of the people don't follow the third one though, or this world would sure be a nicer place to live.
