Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
A.E. Housman (1859 – 1936):
“I do not choose the right
word, I get rid of the wrong one.”
Joseph Campbell (1904 – 1987):
“Life has no meaning. Each of
us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question
when you are the answer.”
and
“We must be willing to let go
of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.”
Victor Frankl (1905 – 1997):
“Everything can be taken from
a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in
any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
and
“For the first time in my
life I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the
final wisdom by so many thinkers. The truth - that Love is the ultimate and
highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the
greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart:
The salvation of man is through love and in love.”
Tennessee Williams (1911 –
1983):
“What is straight? A line can
be straight, or a street, but the human heart, oh, no, it's curved like a road
through mountains.”
and
“Time doesn't take away from
friendship, nor does separation.”
Gregory Corso (1930 – 2001):
“If you believe you're a
poet, then you're saved.”
and
“Standing on a street corner
waiting for no one is power.”
Sandra Day O’Connor (1930 - ):
“Do the best you can in every
task, no matter how unimportant it may seem at the time. No one learns more
about a problem than the person at the bottom.”
and
“We don’t accomplish anything
in the world alone and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry off
one’s life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that
create something.”
Patrick Süskind (1949 - ):
“Talent means nothing, while
experience, acquired in humility and with hard work, means everything.”
