Personally, I love quotes, they can be really inspiring and give me that warm fuzzy feeling inside. :smile:
A week ago, I bought a plain hardback book which I've been filling with as many positive/inspiring quotes, pictures, etc. which I take everywhere with me. No-one else has to do this, but it's worth a go, I find it makes me feel better if I read it when I'm feeling particuarly down/suicidal.
Anyway, if you have any positive quotes you feel like sharing...Go ahead! :biggrin:

Here's a few of my favorites:
" Life can be rough sometimes but always look for the diamond in the rough. Always take that one extra step, that one last push...just hang in there, don't give up."
~Dinah Hanson
" Live with your talents, not with your weaknesses."
~Mansi Arora
" I love the light because it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars."
~Og Mandino
"The chances are that you have already come to believe that happiness is unattainable. But men have attained it. And they have attained it by realising that happiness does not spring from the procuring of physical or mental pleasure, but from the development of reason and the adjustment of conduct to principles."
~Arnold Bennett
"Never allow anyone to rain on your parade and thus cast a pall of gloom and defeat on the entire day. Remember that no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character, are required to set up in the fault-finding business. Nothing external can have any power over you unless you permit it. Your time is too precious to be sacrificed in wasted days combating the menial forces of hate, jealously, and envy. Guard your fragile life carefully. Only God can shape a flower, but any foolish child can pull it to pieces."
~Og Mandino
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action.
~Benjamin Disraeli
A man who trims himself to suit everybody will soon whittle himself away.
~ Charles M Schwab
The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you're willing to work.
~ Oprah Winfrey
Every time you state what you want or believe, you're the first to hear it. It's a message to both you and others about what you think is possible. Don't put a ceiling on yourself.
~ Oprah Winfrey
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
~ Buddha
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
~ Buddha
