ENDING ON MY OWN QUOTES


I hope in some if not just one of these quotations, someone somewhere, will take something from it.

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

Eleanor Roosevelt

 

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in one word. Freedom, justice, honour, duty, mercy, and hope.

Winston Churchill

 

The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.

Oprah Winfrey

 

Could a greater miracle take place, than for us to look through each other’s eyes

Henry David Thoreau

 

The mediocre teacher tells, the good teacher explains  the superior teacher demonstrates the great teacher inspires.

William Arthur Ward

 

A man is great through deeds, not through birth

Chanakya

 

After climbing up a great hill, one   only finds there are many more great hills

 to climb

 Nelson Mandela

 

One of the greatest diseases, is to be nobody to anybody

Mother Teresa

 

Then there are Dalai Lamas wonderful quotes.

Our prime purpose in this life, is to help others and if you can’t help them, then at least, don’t hurt them

 

We can never obtain peace in the outer world, until we make peace with ourselves.

    

We can live without religion and meditation, but we can’t survive without human affection.

 

And finally, quotes from me.

Cancer really scares me, but I’m so not disciplined enough to deal with prevention.

 

Should we look backwards, to stay where we are, or look forward to have a future.

 

“To smile at someone who can see you, to talk with those who don’t have sight and to genuinely shake hands with those who don’t hear your voice takes minutes, even  seconds.  How long will your kindness stay in that person’s heart?

Fiona Cummings
