    When we encounter someone greater than ourselves, turn your thoughts to becoming his equal. When you encounter someone lesser than you, look within and examine your own self.

    Your behavior while people are watching is important. However, your behavior while no one is watching is more important, for it reveals your true character.

    Remember, You can do anything if you just put your money to it.

    The right one is: you can do anything if you just put you mind into it.


    Humans cannot create matter. We can, however, create value. Creating value is in fact, our very humanity. When we praise people for their strength of character we are actually acknowledging their ability to create value.

    Dream more of becoming than of obtaining.

    To a great extent, the people with whom you choose to associate influence the direction of your life.

    Align your personality and soul purpose and experience more synchronicity, fulfillment and happiness. It is never too late to become the person you were meant to be.

    "Knowing others is wisdom; Knowing the self is enlightenment." Tao Te Ching

    Know the difference between instinct and habit. Trust your instincts, question your habits.

    "He, who fears he will suffer, already suffers from his fears." Michel Eyquen

    The fool who knows he is a fool is for that very reason wise. The fool who thinks himself wise is the greatest fool of all.

    These have been quite telling for me recently:

    Move to a new country and you quickly see that visiting a place as a tourist, and actually moving there for good, are two very different things.
    ― Tahir Shah

    Moving on is a simple thing, what it leaves behind is hard!
    ― Dave Mustaine

    Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.

    Never forget: people are always watching you. Yes, even then. And yes, its creepy.

    "Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission." Eleanor Roosevelt

    In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man - if you want anything done, ask a woman. ;)

    "People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. What you spend years creating others could destroy overnight: Create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God: it was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Teresa

    @Ravenslight The second one doesn't really work. I tried to find a BDSM buddy by going up to pretty woman on the street, handcuffing her and starting the spanking action. I got arrested. I will leave you with this: before having sex with someone, always, always ask.

    Heh, heheh. *cough* sorry, carry on.
