The Rest is Silence

Recently I've collected a ton of quotes...so I figure I will share. They are all from different kinds of people, and some are serious while others are funny so I'll separate the serious ones from the funny ones.

I'll probably come back and update this post as I get new quotes.

_____________________

Primero: En serio

"Sometimes we get too deep into our own ambitions and don't realize that there are other people around us that need help." -I'm pretty sure Jeremy Butler said this one

"The scholar who cherishes the love of comfort is not fit to be deemed a scholar." -Confucius

"The righteous feel no need for attention, no desire to be praised, no inclination to demand recognition. The prideful demand their rights, even if they are wrong." -Bruce R. McConkie

"The important thing is to not be bitter over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past and recognize that every day won't be sunny. When you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair, remember that it's only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars lead you back home." -Corrie Ten Bloom

"Everything falls. Some into place, others into pieces. But gravity affects everything."

"For those of you falling in love, keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right. Throw yourself in the midst of the danger, but keep one eye open at night." -Rachael Yamagata

“We say we love flowers, yet we pluck them. We say we love trees, yet we cut them down. And people still wonder why some are afraid when told they are loved.”

"If you lose, so be it. But don't give up."

"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but by how we react to what happens. Not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes.It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results."

"Alas for the dreamer: the moment of consciousness that accompanies the awakening is the acutest of sufferings." -Primo Levi

"We are plunged into slumber, we are the children of the dust and ashes, until we love...but love, and you are pure, as on the first day of creation." -Leo Tolstoy

"You're my little cinnamon roll- sweet on the inside, hot on the outside" -Adam Anderson

When in Mexico: Today is taco day!....like every other day!"-Anita Leiva

"Can we please go mexican pole dancing on my birthday?" -Crystal Smith

"You have a dragon on your desk." JR Reall

"And now I just feel like I have sunshine in me" -Ariel Reiley

"It's not cheating if it's with Batman" -Devyn Bayes

"Who the heck gave you a license to be so cute. It's actually kind of annoying, get a life." -Nils Evenson

"If they would get rid of immunizations, seat belts and air bags, we could eliminate the weak ones and become a super race." -Mark Larson
