More On...

These will be added to the relevant topics under ZQuotes later.

Expectations

Expect more from yourself than from others. Because expectations from others hurt a lot, while expectations from yourself inspire a lot. That’s life. - Unknown

Experience

Experience taught me a few things. One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you're generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make. - Donald Trump

Fear

But while all fear is not laziness, much fear is exactly that. Much of our fear is fear of a change in the status quo, a fear that we might lose what we have if we venture forth from where we are now. - M. Scott Peck

Help

Cries for help are frequently inaudible. - Tom Robbins

Human

There is no such thing as a weird human being, it’s just that some people require more understanding than others. - Tom Robbins

Humanity

Throughout most of our history, nothing – not flood, famine, plague, or new weapons – has endangered humanity one-tenth as much as the narcissistic ego, with its self-aggrandizing presumptions and its hell-hound spawn of fear and greed. - Tom Robbins

Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature. - Tom Robbins

Magic

If you take any activity, any art, any discipline, any skill – take it and push it as far as it will go, push it beyond where it has ever been before, push it to the wildest edges of edges, then you force it into the realm of magic. - Tom Robbins

Marriage

Marriage doesn’t guarantee that you will be together forever, it’s only paper. I takes trust, respect, commitment, understanding, friendship and faith in your relationship to make it last. - Unknown

People

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who believe there are two kind of people in this world and those who are smart enough to know better. - Tom Robbins
