"A loving heart is the truest wisdom."
Charles Dickens
"People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's all BS. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they are afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain, but they are wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. You're feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them you are letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel pain."
Jim Morrison
"If someone is going down the wrong road, he doesn't need motivation to speed him up. What he needs is education to turn him around."

Abraham Lincoln

"At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself; 'I have to go to work - as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I'm going to do what I was born for - the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm."

"There is no real excellence in all this world which can be separated from right living."

"Depressives think awful things about themselves and their future. Maybe that's all there is to depression ... Maybe what looks like a symptom of depression - negative thinking - is the disease. Depression ... is neither bad brain chemistry nor anger turned inward. It is a disorder of conscious thought."
Martain Seilgman
