In the depths of winter I finally learned that there within me lay an invincible summer.
Albert Camus
For an inpenetratable shield, stand inside yourself.
Thoreau
and... Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.

I have a favourite verse...by John Betjemen.
In the liquorice fields of Pontefract my love and I did meet
And many a burdened liquorice bush was blooming round our feet
Red hair she had and golden skin, her sulky lips were shaped for sin
Her sturdy legs were flannel slacked
The strongest legs in Pontefract!
I love this verse.

Veni, Vidi, Vici. (I came, I saw, I conquered). It gives one something to look up to, an aim, a positive goal in life.
If that fails, I dream of strangling Gordon Ramsay.
Edit. Lily - Brilliant!

'So many books, So little time', from a bookstore in the USA when I lived there for a year. It reminds me of some good times, and my love of books - also reminds me of the need to read for my uni course, unfortunately!

'Live in the now' Stops me from moping about the past and worrying myself about cr** in the future.
I also like the one someone else said up there
'Today's crisis is tomorrows joke'
