“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

― H. Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

“Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn’t matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.”

― Richard P. Feynman

“You must give everything to make your life as beautiful as the dreams that dance in your imagination.”

― Roman Payne

I wanted to share some inspirational quotes with you. Today seemed like a good time to do this. There are an estimated 100,000 words in the English language that are feelings related. Some emotions are pleasant, and some are unpleasant, but all feelings can provide useful information. I’ve also included some words related to strengths and values since the line between what we think and what we feel may vary from person to person. If any of these quotes strike a chord with you, please share them.

Juneteenth

Holliday Inspiration.   Post by David Joel Miller.

“This meant that all the slaves were now free. The slaves in Texas where the last slaves to be set free, and the day when General Gordon Granger declared freedom is still celebrated as Juneteenth.”

― Captivating History, African American History: A Captivating Guide to the People and Events that Shaped the History of the United States

“Juneteenth Day celebrations (commemorating the day the last slaves in Texas learned they were free, two years after Emancipation)”

― Isabel Wilkerson, The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America’s Great Migration

“Love does not require taking an uncritical stance toward the object of one’s affections. In truth, it often requires the opposite. We can’t be of real service to the hopes we have for places—and people, ourselves included—without a clear-eyed assessment of their (and our) strengths and weaknesses.”

― Annette Gordon-Reed, On Juneteenth

“The law might say I could go to a school or into a store. But it could not ensure that I would be welcome when I came to these places.”

― Annette Gordon-Reed, On Juneteenth

“A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading.”

― William Styron, Conversations with William Styron

“Experience is merely the name men gave to their mistakes.”

― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky.”

― Alan Moore

“Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”

― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life. All that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.”

― Albert Einstein

“Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.”

― H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Memorial Day.

“As a nation, we began by declaring that ‘all men are created equal.’ We now practically read it ‘all men are created equal, except negroes.’ When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read ‘all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.’ When it comes to this, I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty – to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”

― Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln Letters

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

― Abraham Lincoln

“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.”

― Abraham Lincoln, Complete Works – Volume XII

“The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it’s all that matters.”

― Audrey Hepburn

“Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn’t carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.”

― Stephen King

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! — When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”

“Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”

― Abigail Adams

“The time will come when diligent research over long periods will bring to light things which now lie hidden. A single lifetime, even though entirely devoted to the sky, would not be enough for the investigation of so vast a subject… And so this knowledge will be unfolded only through long successive ages. There will come a time when our descendants will be amazed that we did not know things that are so plain to them… Many discoveries are reserved for ages still to come, when memory of us will have been effaced.”

― Seneca, Natural Questions

“Better is possible. It does not take genius. It takes diligence. It takes moral clarity. It takes ingenuity. And above all, it takes a willingness to try.”

― Atul Gawande, Better: A Surgeon’s Notes on Performance
