Practice makes perfect. ❈•❈•❈ Think globally — act locally. ❈•❈•❈ The world will respect you as much as you respect yourself. ❈•❈•❈ You don’t have to move mountains. Simply fall in love with and embrace life. Be a tornado of happiness, gratitude and acceptance. You will change the world by just being warm, kind-hearted and good. Kiki Vhyce ❈•❈•❈ All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best; And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, “The Builders” ❈•❈•❈ «Спасибо, сын. Тебе отвечу кратко. Одна из наших дедовских примет Гласит: коль нет на кладбище порядка, Порядка и в самом ауле нет». Расул Гамзатов, «Брат» ❈•❈•❈ Самая опасная ложь — слегка извращённая истина. Георг Лихтенберг ❈•❈•❈ Бог нас всегда окружает теми людьми, с которыми нам необходимо исцелиться от своих недостатков. прп. Силуан Афонский ❈•❈•❈ In your breath are magic spells Which wisp and curl on every word, And as they waltz, your rhythmic voice Becomes the sweetest sound I’ve heard. There is such phonetic grace In every phatic word you place, But should your lips eclipse my name, And let it slip with warm acclaim, Or better yet, in passions flame, Should you with love for me proclaim, Then science to its knees will fall As air will hold no oxygen, Nor argon, neither nitrogen, But beauty, magic. That is all. Sam Hammond ❈•❈•❈ She was a pale, ethereal creature, with wide, spiritual blue eyes and a wealth of golden hair. <...> Here was intellectual life, he thought, and here was beauty, warm and wonderful as he had never dreamed it could be. <...> Here was something to live for, to win to, to fight for—ay, and die for. The books were true. There were such women in the world. She was one of them. She lent wings to his imagination, and great, luminous canvases spread themselves before him whereon loomed vague, gigantic figures of love and romance, and of heroic deeds for woman’s sake—for a pale woman, a flower of gold. And through the swaying, palpitant vision, as through a fairy mirage, he stared at the real woman, sitting there and talking of literature and art. Jack London, “Martin Eden” ❈•❈•❈ I was only a boy, but the image of my father holding the woman he loved for the last time has remained with me throughout the years. It is always surprising how small a part of life is taken up by meaningful moments. Most of them, they are over before they start, although they cast a light on the future and make the person who originated them unforgettable. Anna had shined such a light on Siam. “Anna and the King” ❈•❈•❈ I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. Michelangelo ❈•❈•❈ Any scientist who can’t explain to an eight-year-old what he is doing is a charlatan. Kurt Vonnegut ❈•❈•❈ You should never take more than you give In the circle of life! Elton John, “Circle of Life” ❈•❈•❈ there is nothing left to worry about the sun and her flowers are here. rupi kaur ❈•❈•❈ …Not just a speck in the universe, Not just some words in a Bible verse, You are the living word, You’re part of something way bigger!.. Beyoncé, “Bigger”
