ReplyDeleteWalt Disney once said,
ReplyDelete"All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them."
I think this quote is very true in all aspects. In order for someone's dream to come true, they must have the courage to pursue their dreams.

I like all quotes by Dr. Seuss because he was amazing and very wise, but this one is my favorite because it is a wonderful quote to live by, for anyone:
ReplyDelete"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -Dr. Seuss
He is simply telling us to be ouselves and I toatally agree with him! We should never try to change who we are for the benefit of our peers.

One of my favorite Shoguns I have read about that lived in mid-15th and early 16th century feudal Japan was Ieyasu Tokugawa.
ReplyDelete"Persuade thyself that imperfection and inconvenience are the natural lot of mortals, and there will be no room for discontent, neither for despair."
-Ieyasu Tokugawa
The reason why I chose this quote is because I believe it is true. We humans are not perfect and inconveniences are always around the corner. By persuading oneself to accept inconveniences and their imperfect selves, one may lead a more optimistic way of life and strive for (if not for perfection) the best they can be.

"I'm the one who has to die when its time for me to die. So let me live my life the way i want to." - Lil' Wayne.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great quote and is exactly what I tell people in my own words. It is just exactly how I feel. I hate people telling me how I should live my life. I don't like being told what to do or that what I'm doin is wrong. I know right from wrong and I have a good head on my shoulders. If I make a mistake, it's my own fault and I don't need opinions from anyone else. The people who really matter will love and accept me no matter what I do. So this qoute explains my feelings perfectly. I know I am still young, but it is my life. Not my parents, friends, or anyone elses. And I'm going to live it however I want to.

"When one door closes, another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one that has opened for us."- Alexander Graham Bell
ReplyDeleteI believe people spend too much effort focusing on thngs they wished they had done differently. Therefore, they unknowingly let many great opportunities pass them by.
