Saturday Afternoon Quotes

“Not causing harm requires staying awake. Part of being awake is slowing down enough to notice what we say and do. The more we witness our emotional chain reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain. It becomes a way of life to stay awake, slow down, and notice.”


--Pema Chodron


“People fall so in love with their pain, they can’t leave it behind. The same as the stories they tell. We trap ourselves”
 
--Chuck Palahniuk

“I’m never gonna wait that extra twenty minutes to text you back, and I’m never gonna play hard to get when I know your life has been hard enough already. When we all know everyone’s life has been hard enough already it’s hard to watch the game we make of love, like everyone’s playing checkers with their scars, saying checkmate whenever they get out without a broken heart.”

--Andrea Gibson

Thursday Afternoon Quotes

“Stop your story in its track, 5 times for 2-5 seconds… just full stop of whatever mental/emotional story is going on. Let the energy be there without indulging in the story. When you truly cut your story for 2-5 seconds, 5 times, without escaping the energy of the feelings but instead staying open to it, the validity or ‘reality’ that the story appears to bear, will crumble all by itself.”

--Bentinho Massaro

“Most people tell you they want to get out of kindergarten, but don’t believe them. Don’t believe them! All they want you to do is to mend their broken toys. “Give me back my wife. Give me back my job. Give me back my money. Give me back my reputation, my success.” This is what they want; they want their toys replaced. That’s all. Even the best psychologist will tell you that, that people don’t really want to be cured. What they want is relief; a cure is painful. Waking up is unpleasant, you know. You are nice and comfortable in bed. It is irritating to be woken up. That’s the reason the wise guru will not attempt to wake people up. I hope I’m going to be wise here and make no attempt whatsoever to wake you up if you are asleep. It is really none of my business, even though I say to you at times, “Wake up!” My business is to do my thing, to dance my dance. If you profit from it fine; if you don’t, too bad! As the Arabs say, “The nature of rain is the same, but it makes thorns grow in the marshes and flowers in the gardens.”

--Anthony De Mello

What if the administration actually wanted sequestration, to use as a fig leaf covering damage that the Affordable Care Act is going to reign down on the economy this year?

Wednesday Afternoon Quotes

"Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement."

--Henry Ford

"Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

"How much time he saves who does not look to see what his neighbor says or does or thinks."

Sunday Afternoon Quotes

“It’s surprising how many persons go through life without ever recognizing that their feelings toward other people are largely determined by their feelings toward themselves, and if you’re not comfortable within yourself, you can’t be comfortable with others.”

--Sydney J. Harris

“I used to think I was tough, but then I realized I wasn’t. I was fragile and I wore thick fucking armor. And I hurt people so they couldn’t hurt me. And I thought that was what being tough was, but it isn’t.”
--James Frey

“The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.”
