Hi Ellen! We've missed you around here!
I have 2 favs -
"The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea" - Isak Dinesen
"Think where a man's glory both begins and ends and say my glory was I had such friends." - William Butler Yeats
"Earth receive an honored guest;
William Yeats is laid to rest.
Let the Irish vessel lie,
Emptied of its poetry."- WH Auden
This is the first 4 lines of an Auden poem written about Yeats after he passed away. It has always held a special place in my heart because it makes me happy that two of my favorite writers were friends.
I love the Proverb quote:
"Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday"
But I actually got it from Edith Bunker.
Not sure where it came from, but it has been my favorite for probably about 10 years.
"Those who hear not the music think the dancers mad".
A guy my mom went to school with always said "The world is a metaphysical unreality, it exists only in the eye of the beholder. When a man dies his world dies with him." Don't know why be that is always stuck in my head.
"What would you attempt to do if you knew you would not fail"
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" - Eleanor Roosevelt.
The woman rocked.
"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." Dr. Seuss
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." Eleanor Roosevelt
