I love quotes <3

Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened. ~Dr. Seuss

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile... But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.
This would be an awesome text for Pon and Zi.

Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option ~ Mark Twain (AMEN)

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. ~ C.S. Lewis
AMEN.

Oooo, a quote section! Lots of my fave quotes are from Tolkien, the real Bible, Saints, God's Mother, and some poets, & writers.

My fave one right now is on my sig:"All my own perception of beauty both in majesty and simplicity is founded upon Our Lady."
-J.R.R. Tolkien on Jesus' mother
"Out of the darkness of my life, so much frustrated, I put before you the one great thing to love on earth: the Blessed Sacrament. There you will find romance, glory, honour, fidelity, and the true way of all your loves on earth."- J.R.R. Tolkien on the Blessed Sacrament (Jesus)
"The only cure for sagging or fainting faith is Communion. Though always Itself, perfect and complete and inviolate, the Blessed Sacrament does not operate completely and once for all in any of us. Like the act of Faith it must be continuous and grow by exercise. Frequency is of the highest effect. Seven times a week is more nourishing than seven times at intervals."-J.R.R. Tolkien
"He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom."-J.R.R. Tolkien
"Wrong is wrong even if everybody is doing it, and right is right even if nobody is doing it.”
- Saint Augustine
The Baltimore Catechism #554
Q.Could a person who denies only one article of our Faith be a Catholic?
A: A person who denies even one article of our Faith could not be a Catholic; for truth is one and we must accept it whole and entire or not at all.
"And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
-Matthew 16:18
”Faith resembles a lamp. As a lamp lights the whole house, so the light of Faith illuminates the whole soul.”
-Saint John Chrysostom, Father and Doctor of the Church
“Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”- St. Francis of Assisi

"Are you some kind of freak show circus dog?" - Shane, "Firehouse Dog" (movie.....the only part I liked )

"Life is a song; sing it." -Mother Teresa

"If you cannot be a poet, be the poem." -David Carradine

"The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved -- loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves." -Victor Hugo

"The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss." -Thomas Carlyle

"Live every day as if it were your last, because one of these days you will be right." -Unknown

^ really like that last one. Here's another along those same lines:

I'm living the next five minutes/Like they are my last five minutes/'Cause I know the next five minutes may be all I have/And after the next five minutes/Turn into the last five minutes/I'm taking the next five minutes/To start it all over again

Steven Curtis Chapman "Next 5 Minutes"
And a few more:

Always have a poet in your pocket.

John Adams

If you think you are a poached egg when you are looking for a piece of toast to suit you, you may be sane; but if you think you are God, there is no hope for you.

C.S. Lewis, "God in the Dock"

The Son of God suffered unto the death, not that men might not suffer, but that their sufferings might be like His.

George MacDonald

Buzz: "This is no time to be hysterical."

Pig: "This is the perfect time to be hysterical."

Rex: "Everyone get hysterical!"

-Toy Story 3

There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, "All right, then, have it your way."
C. S. Lewis

"He'll be coming and going" he had said. "One day you'll see him and another you won't. He doesn't like being tied down--and of course he has other countries to attend to. It's quite all right. He'll often drop in. Only you mustn't press him. He's wild, you know. Not like a tame lion."
Mr. Beaver (C.S.Lewis LWW)

"Safe?" said Mr. Beaver."Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you."
Mr. Beaver (C.S.Lewis LWW)

Just a few I like

"When your life is defined by a single action, it changes the concept of time."
-Felon (movie)

"Strength and honor."
-Gladiator (movie)

"Something happens to you when you stumble on love that pure. It makes you feel small. Makes you feel ugly and ashamed and unworthy."
-Gone Baby Gone (book)

"We bury our sins here, Dave. We wash them clean."
-Mystic River (book)

"Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too. But perhaps, it was only an echo."

"I went to a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out."
- Rodney Dangerfield

"Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway."

-The Sacred Romance

"Beauty will save the world."
-Fyodor Dostoyevsky

"Human beings must be known to be loved; but Divine beings must be loved to be known."
-Blaise Pascal

God created 2 ears and 1 mouth for we should listen thoroughly than talk nonsense. --- My mom when she was lecturing me.

^ I saw one a bit like that on a church sign before:

God made two ears that can be open and one mouth that can be shut

If God only used perfect people nothing would get done

A church sign I saw once.

People never crumble in a day/Its a slow fade/A slow fade

Casting Crowns (band) "Slow Fade"

I try to be so tough/But I'm just not strong enough/I can't do this alone/God, I need you to hold onto me/I try to be good enough/But I'm nothing without your love/Savior, please/Keep saving me

Josh Wilson, "Savior Please"

...we have fought the long defeat.

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
Of course, there's also the quote in my sig.
And then this one. From The Silmarillion I think it is just beautiful:

Hail Earendil, of mariners most renowned, the looked for that cometh at unawares, the longed for that cometh beyond hope! Hail Earendil, bearer of light before the Sun and Moon! Splendor of the Children of Earth, star in the darkness, jewel in the sunset, radiant in the morning!

Eonwe, in the last chapter.

All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless agains shall be king

J.R.R. Tolkien.
And there's this last one, a classic, from my favorite Dickens:

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

A Tale of Two Cities

"Don't tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results."
George S. Patton

"Impossible is not a word, it's just an excuse for someone not to try."
-Kutless 'what faith can do.'

"Not everything is on google"
-Church billboard sign.

^^ I love both of those! I love that Kutless song!

Frodo: "What are we holding onto, Sam?"

Sam: "Taht there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for!"
