Hello all! I've been abundantly blessed by my virtual coffee chats with so many of you in this wonderful forum on Books and Literature! (The Relationship forum is fun too, but this is where inspiration comes from... "the stuff dreams are made of" )
Anyways... We all have favorite quotes, quotes that have touched a chord in our hearts and minds, quotes that have influenced our decisions, inspired us to go that extra mile, give us courage to face the day, and shown us what real living is like.
Lets share these divine inspirations with our little world here - on this little posting. I'll start with one of my all-time favorites....
Being a star-gazer myself and being the proud owner of a tempestuous personal history, this is one of my favorites - it reminds me that no matter what is swirling around me at a given time, I can get through it.
"The most tempestuous wind cannot disturb the quiet of the stars."

A while back, I played Marilla in the play Anne of Green Gables. I've always loved the books by L.M.Montgomery and shall add a few of her famous quotes here:
"Good friends are always together in spirit." (Like that K?)
“I’m not a bit changed—not really. I’m only just pruned down and branched out. The real me—back here—is just the same. It won’t make a bit of difference where I go or how much I change outwardly; at heart I shall always be your little Anne, who will love you and Matthew and dear Green Gables more and better every day of her life.”
"All the Beyond was hers with its possibilities lurking rosily in the oncoming years—each year a rose of promise to be woven into an immortal chaplet."
I wonder what Shakespeare would have said, in regards to my quote....
He would have said:
"There's daggers in men's smiles". - (Hamlet, Act II, Scene III)
"Men of few words are the best men" . - (King Henry V, Act III, Scene II)
Hamlet:
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how
infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and
admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like
a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—and yet,
to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me—
nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so.
From a doctor I saw in urgent care tonight. Wow, she was such a good doctor that actually spent time with her patients.
"Happiness and acceptance comes from within. I do not look for it from the world. As long as I know I did my best to serve you I am happy."
Urgent care!? Thoughts and prayers are being sent your way.
The quote is indeed a great one. "The World can't give it to you and the World can't take it away!" This comes from a song by the way but seemed appropriate for this post.
"The course of true love never did run smooth"
Midsummer Nights Dream, Act i, Sc.1
"I'll note you in my book of memory"
Henry VI, Act ii, Sc.4
(That one is for K. My book of memory has been forever imprinted by your sweet influence- thanks. )
"I'll be as patient as a gentle stream"
Two Gentlemen of Verona, Act ii, Sc.6
Past the seeker as he prayed came the crippled and the beggar and the beaten and seeing them... he cried, "Great God, how is it that a loving creator can see such things and yet do nothing about them?" God said, "I did do something I made you."
