Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
My name is Jessica. I'm an Eskimo and I love quotes. I also love cats but that's not what this blog is about..... unless the quote is about cats.
Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
I’d rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.
Rules for Happiness:
something to do,
someone to love,
something to hope for.
Hell is empty and all the devils are here.
I do not trust people who don’t love themselves and yet tell me, ‘I love you.’ There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt.
True love is not so much a matter of romance as it is a matter of anxious concern for the well-being of one’s companion.
Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it!
We don’t need a list of rights and wrongs, tables of dos and don’ts: we need books, time, and silence. Thou shalt not is soon forgotten, but Once upon a time lasts forever.
In the end
these things matter most:
How well did you love?
How fully did you live?
How deeply did you let go?
