Favorite Quotes

This has likely been done before, but as 2020 comes to an end soon, it seemed appropriate to share some quotes that resonated.

Charlie Chaplin lived 88 years. He left us 4 statements: 1. Nothing is forever in this world, not even our problems. 2. I love walking in the rain because no one can see my tears. 3. The most lost day in life is the day we don't laugh. 4. Six best doctors in the world...:1. The sun,2. Rest,3. Exercise,4. Diet,5. Self-respect 6. Friends. Stick to them at all stages of your life and enjoy a healthy life...If you see the moon, you will see the beauty of God...If you see the sun, you will see the power of God...If you see a mirror, you will see God's best creation. So believe it. We are all tourists, God is our travel agent who has already identified our routes, bookings and destinations... trust him and enjoy life. Life is just a journey! Therefore, live today! Tomorrow may not be.

Always liked Bruce Lee's philosophies:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine.

He who knows not and knows not he knows not, he is a fool shun him.
He who knows not and knows he knows not, he is simple teach him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows, he is asleep, awaken him.
He who knows and knows that he knows, he is wise, follow him.

More goodies:

A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer

Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who had practiced one kick 10,000 times.
