I kicked candy and now seem to be stuck with quotations, which are attacking my brain instead of my teeth :-)

Robert Byrne, "Sources, References, and Notes," The Other 637 Best Things Anybody Ever Said, 1984

 

HGGT! HBW!

Taken for Caturday theme quotations. The quote is: When you wake up each morning, you can choose to be happy or choose to be sad. Unless some terrible catastrophe has occurred the night before, it is pretty much up to you. Tomorrow morning, when the sun shines through your window, choose to make it a happy day. Lynda Resnick

Perdonatemi, ma -come si sa- la carne è debole e l'ego, qualche volta- prende il sopravvento!

[Foto di Paolo Mezzetti]

 

Forgive me ... but the flesh is weak and the ego -sometimes- takes over!

You come across an old typewriter, perhaps in a junk shop. No-one else is around. You have an opportunity to type a few words on the paper, anonymously. What will you write?

 

"..because nothing makes me happier

and nothing makes me sadder than you.."

Spring leaves and wildflowers were popping out everywhere we hiked.

 

a quotation:

"This is the most beautiful place on earth.

There are many such places. Every man, every woman, carries in heart and mind the image of the ideal place, the right place, the one true home, known or unknown, actual or visionary. A houseboat in Kashmir, a view down Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, a gray gothic farmhouse two stories high at the end of a red dog road in the Allegheny Mountains, a cabin on the shore of a blue lake in spruce and fir country, a greasy alley near the Hoboken waterfront, or even,

for those of a less demanding sensibility, the world to be seen from a comfortable apartment high in the tender, velvety smog of Manhattan, Chicago, Paris, Tokyo, Rio, or Rome

--there's no limit to the human capacity for the homing sentiment."

Edward Abbey

"Desert Solitaire"

  

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.”

 

― Bukkyo Dendo Kyokai, The Teaching of Buddha

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY

 

Sometimes in life we come full circle

I see a footprint of my beginning

and here I am back at the start

I see the people who tried to stop me winning

but I rise above them; and leave them far behind

I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand

and something deep inside me drives me on

no looking back; I am complete; I understand

sometimes in life we cannot win them over

it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand

and He will guide me on my journey

bring me safely to the shore

where angels sing; rejoice and hold me

and I will not be frightened any more

He sees in us the pain; the human burden

He sees the weight that life and people bring

He knows how much; He knows and He is certain

He will not give us more than we can take

so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing

and when at last our cup is brimming over

He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow

and we feel the greatest love that ever found us

and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow

and once more we are peaceful

finding joy in simple things

as darkness; shadows and all our plights

are left behind and taken care of;

whisked away on angel's wings

and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed

as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light

and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow

this moment we exist; and in this moment

I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

When you're not being able to do much there's always technology to make you have a dialogue with your many florals, which I did yesterday. Many quotes spring to mind, but I chose this one.

 

"The artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and harmonious tinted nuances of their blossoms. Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs to him" ~ August Rodin

"I don't want to imagine the time

when I have to stop playing."

~ Fernando Torres ~

 

I loved this quotation, not realizing it was referring to

Fernando Torres, a former Spanish professional football player,

now retired! So I wonder what he's imagining now!

 

...to rob us of our former selves. (Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey, 'A Woman of Independent Means' )

"The fog comes

on little cat feet.

 

It sits looking

over harbor and city

on silent haunches

and then moves on."

~~ Carl Sandburg

ODC "movie quote"

Quotations from Augustine of Hippo, asking for God's enlightenment. The second quote refers to:

James 1:16 Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. (World English Bible, public domain.)

 

Thanks for looking!

i really like this photo

especially without the text

but the text is true and appropriate so i left it

A few hours earlier this long rubber fisherman's walkway had been flying through the air, tossed around by the strong winds blowing across Dungeness beach. It came to rest in this serendipitous form and just had to be photographed!

➤ Your image must convey/embody an emotion.

➤ The title of your image must be a quotation that includes the name of whatever emotion you have chosen.

➤ Your image must use three distinct colors/hues (besides black and white which are optional). Note: light, medium and dark blue are NOT distinct hues; blue, green and purple are.
