Flaming

Sunday Inspiration.     Post by David Joel Miller.

“Sometimes our light goes out, but is blown again into instant flame by an encounter with another human being.”

― Albert Schweitzer

“I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it’s these things I’d believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn’t all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.”

― F. Scott Fitzgerald

“Be the flame, not the moth.”

― Giacomo Casanova

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.

Fidelity

Sunday Inspiration.     Post by David Joel Miller.

“Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.”

― Helen Keller

“Never esteem anything as of advantage to you that will make you break your word or lose your self-respect.”

― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“Do not waste what remains of your life in speculating about your neighbors, unless with a view to some mutual benefit. To wonder what so-and-so is doing and why, or what he is saying, or thinking, or scheming—in a word, anything that distracts you from fidelity to the ruler within you—means a loss of opportunity for some other task.”

― Marcus Aurelius Antonius

Exalted

Sunday Inspiration.     Post by David Joel Miller.

“What we now want most is closer contact and better understanding between individuals and communities all over the earth and the elimination of that fanatic devotion to exalted ideals of national egoism and pride, which is always prone to plunge the world into primeval barbarism and strife.”

― Nikola Tesla

“True leaders understand that leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up.”

― Sheri L. Dew, Saying It Like It Is

“Citizens by birth or choice of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.”

― George Washington

Industrious.

Sunday Inspiration.     Post by David Joel Miller.

“It is not enough to be industrious; so are the ants. What are you industrious about?”

― Henry David Thoreau, Letters to Various Persons

“Society will develop a new kind of servitude which covers the surface of society with a network of complicated rules, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate. It does not tyrannise but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd.”

― Alexis de Tocqueville

“…inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened.”

― Terry Pratchett, Moving Pictures
