A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions and from those roots spring up many new trees.

Love is the only thing we can take with us when we go,and it makes the end so much better.

To an adopted child:

“Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone

But never a doubt that you weren;t my own…

And don’t forget — not even for a minute —

You did not grow under my heart

but in it!”

I sneezed a sneeze into the air

it fell to the earth, I knew not where…

But hard and froze were the looks of those

in whose vicinity I snoze…..(Ogden Nash)

I realize these are poems rather than quotations, per se, but they have become meaningful to me.

love is like a mountain-hard to climb but once you reach the top the view is beautiful…

a good friend would bail you out of jail but a great friend would be sitting next to you saying damn that was fun…

a wise girl kisses but doesnt love..listens but doesnt believe..and leaves before she is left
