1. A Collection of Bits of Wisdom
Arranged by Dawn Harrington

2. “Somewhere, something
incredible is waiting
to be known.”
-Carl Sagan

3. “Someone’s sitting in the shade today because
someone planted a tree a long time ago.” –
Warren Buffet

4. “This one makes a net, this one stands and
wishes,
Would you like to make a bet which one
gets the fishes?
--Chinese rhyme

5. “Even if you fall on
your face,
You’re still moving
forward.”
--Victor Kiam

6. “If you don’t have a
plan, you become
part of somebody
else’s plan.”
--Terence McKenna

7. "I hate the idea that, when it comes to books and learning,
hard is often seen as the opposite of fun. It's strange to me
that we should be so quick to give up on a book or a math
problem when we are so willing to grapple, for centuries if
necessary, with a single level of Angry Birds." --John Green

8. “The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake
up.”
-- Paul Valery

9. “What is the point of
being alive if you
don’t at least try to
do something
remarkable?”
–John Green

10. An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life:
“A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight
and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow,
regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies,
false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is good - he is joy, peace,
love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,
generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on
inside you - and inside every other person, too.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute, and then asked his
grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
