mogwhy Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 "I have too much respect for people to try to control them. But they are estranged from love, afraid to reach out and touch one another. We're afraid to appear sentimental or speak in platitudes because people will say, 'What a jerk!' It takes courage in our culture to be a lover." Leo Buscaglia 2 1 Link to comment

ReaderPaul Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 “I was hurt so deep that I made up my mind never to hurt anybody else, no matter what. I never made jokes about anybody's big ears, their stut- terin', or about them bein' off their nut.” ~ Entertainer Jimmy Durante (February 10, 1893 – January 29, 1980) was referring to being teased at school as a child for his looks, as quoted in: Schnozzola: The Story of Jimmy Durante (1951), by Gene Fowler. Durante was known for piano talent, singing, comedy, and a very large nose. 1 2 Link to comment

These are not cliches but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path. -Phillip Sweet sandrewn 1 2 Link to comment
