“Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold. But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow.”
Douglas Pagels
“So do all who lived to see such times, but that is not for you who decide. All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you.”
Gandalf
“We do not choose to be born...We do not--most of us, choose to die, or the times or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live--Courageously or in cowardice, Honorably or dishonorably, With purpose or adrift. We decide what is important and what is trivial. What makes us significant is what we DO, Or REFUSE TO DO. WE DECIDE and WE CHOOSE--and so we give definition to our lives.”
Joseph Epstein
“By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.”
Zelda Fitzgerald
“I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.”
Anais Nin
“If you want a neat wife, choose her on a Saturday”
Benjamin Franklin
“You don't get to choose how you are going to die or when. You can only decide how you're going to live.”
Joan Baez
