we have rushed through life trying to save.”—Will Rogers
2. “A mind troubled by doubt cannot
focus on the course to victory.”

life you’ve imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws
of the universe will be simpler.” -- Henry David Thoreau
4. “Slow down and enjoy life. It’s not only the
scenery you miss by going too fast—you miss
the sense of where you are going and why.”—
Eddie Cantor
5. “Always aim at complete harmony of
thought, word, and deed. Always aim at
purifying your thoughts, and everything
will be well.” --Mahatma Gandhi
7. “There is no greater place to find peace than the
last place you found it.” —Andrea Chapman

things that matter.” --Martin Luther King, Jr.

beginning, but anyone can start today, and

11. “True wisdom lies in gathering the
precious things out of each day as it
goes by.” —E.S. Bouton.
12. “To love is to risk not being loved in return. To
hope is to risk pain. Life is a risky business, but
risk must be taken because the greatest hazard
in life is to risk nothing.”
--Andrea Chapman
13. “We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let
us never lose sight of the reasons for the journey,
or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way.”
--Andrea Chapman
