haven't been here in a while so here are some that I like! Helen Keller I am only one, but I am still one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. homer simpson You can't keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once, and move on. When anger arises, whoever keeps firm control as if with a racing chariot: Him I call a master charioteer. Anyone else; A rein-holder--that's all. -Dhammapada, 17, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu. Maharamayana Everything has to be the way it is and could not possibly be any other way.

Zen Koan Two monks were arguing about the temple flag waving in the wind. One said, "The flag moves." The other said, "The wind moves." They argued back and forth but could not agree. Hui-neng, the Sixth Patriarch, said: Gentlemen! It is not the wind that moves. It is not the flag that moves. It is your mind that moves. The two monks were struck with awe. Gullible monks rofl

here are a few more I found in my little folder.... Herm Albright A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Have I posted this one? I probably have, I love this one! If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow. -Chinese Epigram

"Wisdom"
When I have ceased to break my wings
Against the faultiness of things,
And learned that compromises wait
Behind each hardly opened gate,
When I have looked Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange -- my youth.
-- Sara Teasdale
I love that as well

((I like that last one very well, Mitter)) Thoreau We see men haying far in the meadow , their heads waving like the grass they cut. In the distance, the wind seemed to bend all alike.
