Quotes by Gandhi - The future depends on what you do today

 


We will become who we are meant to become.

Whatever you believe about yourself on the inside is what you will manifest on the outside.

It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.


Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

It is my conviction that nothing enduring can be built on violence.

I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.


You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.

Funny Story - A Senior and his brand new car

  



A senior citizen drove his brand NEW CAR out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. Amazing, he thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, What am I doing? I'm too old for this, and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the NEW CAR, looked at his watch, and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a state trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."
"Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper.

Native Tongue

A few years ago, I decided to visit my brother who was stationed in Germany.

I assumed that most Germans would speak English.

But I found that many people spoke only their native tongue–including the ticket inspector on the train.

He punched my ticket, then chatted cordially for a bit, making gestures like a windmill.

I simply nodded from time to time to show him that I was interested.

When he had gone, an American soldier in the compartment leaned forward and asked if I spoke German.

“No,” I confessed.

“Then that explains,” she said, “why you didn’t bat an eyelid when he told you that you were on the wrong train.”

Quotes by Oscar Wilde - The truth is rarely pure and never simple.

 


Only the shallow know themselves.

I am the only person in the world I should like to know thoroughly.



Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes. 

Education is an admirable thing but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.



Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live; it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.


There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about and that is not being talked about.

Funny Quotes - Write a wise saying and your name will live forever. ~Author Unknown



I used to think I was indecisive but now I’m not so sure.

Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth.

If I won an award for laziness, I’d send someone else to pick it up.

I want to be like a caterpillar. Eat a lot. Sleep for a while. Wake up beautiful.

My bed is a magical place where I suddenly remember everything I forgot to do.

Unless your name is Google stop acting like you know everything.

Life has no hands but it can still give you a slap in the face sometimes.

Silence is golden unless you have kids. Then it’s just suspicious.

Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
