I had heard the first quote below recently on a television show and thought it to be, well, quotable. When I went to make certain I had the details around it correct I landed on the site, Think Exist, which resulted in the additional quotes I’ve included.

“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.”
– Albert Pine (English author, d.1851)

“Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one’s thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.”
– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (German Playwright, Poet, Novelist and Dramatist. 1749-1832)

“We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.”
– Lloyd Alexander (American Author of a number of fantasy books for children and adolescents, b.1924)

“Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.”
– Plato (Ancient Greek Philosopher He was the world’s most influential philosopher. 428 BC-348 BC)

“I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.”
– Arthur Rubinstein (Polish born American Composer and Pianist, 1887-1982)

“There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.”
– Bryant H. McGill

This is the beginning of a new day.

I have been given this day to use as I will.

I can waste it… or use it for good, but what I do today is important, because I am exchanging a day of my life for it!

When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place something that I have traded for it.

I want it to be gain, and not loss; good and not evil; success, and not failure; in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

I will try just for today, for you never fail until you stop trying.

Some time ago I set up the Twitter account, tWonderful.  I now have started actually tweeting on that account.  Essentially, the tweets will come out daily and be a fairly simple phrase describing something that I think is Wonderful.  Hopefully, these thoughts will spark a memory in those who read them and bring a smile to their face or otherwise brighten their day.  Feel free to follow!

Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper.
