Thoughts to Think On

Today, I don't have a lot to say. I'm wondering again why I decided to sign up to post a blog a day. But, I'm always up for a challenge. I'm 11 days in now, and 19 to go.

I have decided that today will be a few of my favorite quotes.
If you have any other quotes that you would like to share, please do so!

"Be slow to speak, and quick to listen." James 1:19

"It's a dream, a frightful dream, life is..." Commodus

"Stop judging by mere appearances and make a right judgment." John 7:24

"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
Henry David Thoreau

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you, we are in charge of our attitudes."
Charles R. Swindoll

"Laugh as much as you breathe, and love as long as you live."

"Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."
Gladiator

"What we do in life echoes in eternity." Maximus
