Your Favorite Quotes
I kind of got this topic idea from Dawn Marie. (Thanks Dawn Marie!)
But, I thought it would be nice to have a thread on "peaceful contemplations" and get away from some of the catastrophic type of thinking for a while.
Was wondering if you'd like to share some of your favorite philosophical quotes you have heard.
Mine are:
God sometimes leads us into deep waters not to drowned us, but to cleanse us.
There can be no rainbow without rain.
A pearl gatherer from the ocean near Japan once commented that the finest and most beautiful pearls always come from a certain port off a Japan. The reason these pearls are the finest and most beautiful is because it is the most tulmulteous part of the ocean. Because the waves and waters are so tulmulteous, they buffet the pearls so much they end up the most beautiful. So it is in our lives - some of the people with the best characters have come out of the hardest situations.
