Words of Wisdom

I love reading various quotes and words of wisdom and some of them have really changed the way I think and they have influenced my life.

Here are a few that have really helped me.

One of the greatest surprises you'll experience is when you discover
that you can do what you were afraid you couldn't do. Your obstacles
will melt away, if instead of cowering before them, you make up your
mind to walk boldly through them. ~~*Max Steingart*~~

Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things.
The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions :
could have, might have, and should have. ~~*Louis E. Boone*~~

Knowledge becomes wisdom
only after it has been put
to practical use.

"In every moment is a new beginning.
It's never too late for a fresh start."

"Be the best you can be by focusing on your potential,
not your limitations."

"Be the type of person you are looking for in life."

Please share some of the words of wisdom that have inspired you. :)

I always liked this one:-
"I suffer from an incurable disease - colour blindness." (De Balnk, Joost 1908 - 1968)

Then my own personal favourite:-
"There are no strangers in this life, only friends you have not already met."

Duh......I thought I was logged on when I left this one :oops: But remember:-

"If people did not sometimes do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done." (Ludwig Wittgenstein)

Here is another

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you too, can become great. --Mark Twain
