QotD - Anna version
May 16th, 2010 09:25 pm"You are the only person alive who has sole custody of your life ...
Your entire life ...
Not just the life of your mind, but the life of your heart.
Not just your bank account, but your soul."
"The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.”
Anna Quindlen (American bestselling author and journalist, b.1953)
"I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence but it comes from within. It is there all the time.”
Anna Freud (Austrian born British Founder of child psychoanalysis and one of its foremost practitioners; daughter of Sigmund Freud, 1895-1982)
"To fall in love is easy, even to remain in it is not difficult; our human loneliness is cause enough. But it is a hard quest worth making to find a comrade through whose steady presence one becomes steadily the person one desires to be.”
Anna Louise Strong (American journalist and author, 1885-1970)
"Success depends in a very large measure upon individual initiative and exertion, and cannot be achieved except by a dint of hard work.”
"God gives talent. Work transforms talent into genius.”
Anna Pavlova (Russian ballerina, the most celebrated dancer of her time. 1882-1931)
"There is no religion without love, and people may talk as much as they like about their religion, but if it does not teach them to be good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham.”
Anna Sewell (English novelist, best known for writing Black Beauty, 1820-1878)
