He who can take advice

"He who can take advice is sometimes superior to him who can give it."

Live

“Live in the sunshine,
swim the sea,
drink the wild air…”

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Some people

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.

~George Carlin

If

If you ever need anything please don't hesitate to ask someone else first.

~Kurt Cobain

Expose yourself

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.

~Jim Morrison

You can have

You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.

~Robert A. Heinlein

The secret

The secret to happiness is freedom...
And the secret to freedom is courage.

~Thucydides

We are driven by

We are driven by five genetic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun.

~William Glasser

We are willing enough

We are willing enough to praise freedom when she is safely tucked away in the past and cannot be a nuisance. In the present, amidst dangers whose outcome we cannot foresee, we get nervous about her, and admit censorship.

~E. M. Forster

There's no money

There’s no money in poetry,
but then there’s no poetry in money, either.

— Robert Graves

When

When one tugs at a single thing in nature,
he finds it attached to the rest of the world.

~John Muir

Love is life

Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.

~Leo Tolstoy

Work

Work out your own salvation.
Do not depend on others.

~Buddha
