Daily (ish) or maybe weekly (ish) inspiration

[ClareBarr]

Life doesn't run in straight lines. We all have plans and ideas, but none of us really knows what lies ahead.

Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right.

This too will pass.

It is what it is. It's not what you want it to be.

I'm truly inspired by this ... Thank you so much !

Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people. Eleanor Roosevelt. (Going to make a special mention today regarding this quote to the great mind of rawr_ xoxo :) She knows why ! )


Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. Steve Jobs

Voici mon secret. Il est très simple: on ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.

(Translation : Here is my secret. It is very simple: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.)

Taken from Le Petit Prince (1943) Chapter XXI, a novel by Antoine de Saint Exupéry, translated into English as The Little Prince.

“Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it” – Salvador Dali

“Don’t think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It’s self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can’t try to do things. You simply must do things” – Ray Bradbury

“You see things; and you say, ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were; and I say, ‘Why not’?” – George Bernard Shaw

“It’s not about breaking the rules. It is about abandoning the concept of rules altogether” - Paul Lemberg

Clean out a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it. Dee Hock
