Quotes to keep in mind...
I know things have slacked lately. I tried to post my movie updates last Friday and kept having issues, so I said screw it. Hopefully someone saw a good movie and can tell me about it....

Pain nourishes courage. You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you.
Mary Tyler Moore (1937-) American Actress
Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles.
Helen Keller (1880-1968) American Writer
Not a day passes over this earth but men and women of note do great deeds, speak great words and suffer noble sorrows.

ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.

You see things; and you say, "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"
George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish Playwright
Courage to start and willingness to keep everlasting at it are the requisites for success.
Alonzo Newton Benn
The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible -- and achieve it, generation after generation.
Pearl S. Buck (1892-1973) American Writer

The self is not something that one finds. It is something that one creates.
Thomas Szasz (1920-) American Psychiatrist
Rely on the ordinary virtues that intelligent, balanced human beings have relied on for centuries: common sense, thrift, realistic expectations, patience, and perseverance.
John C. Bogle (1929-) American Investor
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
~Buddha
Don't worry about what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive. ~Howard Thurman
Profound truth, so difficult to perceive, difficult to understand, tranquilizing and sublime, is not to be gained by mere reasoning and is perceived only by the wise.
~Buddha
Lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what hold you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom.
