I love this one, not only because I dance; not only because I have volunteered at an alternative cancer treatment facility and been an unpaid writer; but also, because I have loved and been hurt:
'Work like you don't need the money;
love like you've never been hurt;
and dance like you do when no one is looking.....'
I just heard this one tonight on sports talk radio. The show's host was a bit overzealous and overly optimistic about Kobe Bryant's return from injury before the all-star break, and this is how his guest, a sports medicine doctor retorted:
"Men make plans, and God laughs."
And this, of course, is from one of my biggest childhood influences, Henry David Thoreau, in his immortal text, Walden:
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler."
Wow, these really get my juices flowing; but I've always been moved by the written word....
How about you? What quotes have inspired you lately? Please comment with the quote of your choosing....
Thanks!
