All our talk about e.e. cummings and his maybe quote made me think about quotes that keep me going. Anything that keeps you going is a happy thing.
She stood in the storm, and when the wind did not blow her way, she adjusted her sails -- Elizabeth Edwards
And don't worry about losing. If it's right, it happens--the main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away. -- John Steinbeck
A ship in harbor is safe--but that's not what ships are built for" -- John Shedd
We must bring our own light to the darkness. -- Charles Bukowski
I must remember that one about the ship in harbour (and act on it).
ReplyDeleteYes!
DeleteI like most of these - except John Steinbeck's one. In fact, I might borrow these and use them on my No Kidding blog, especially the Elizabeth Edwards one.
ReplyDeleteI have a quote that keeps me going - Gertrude Stein's "The answer is there is no answer. That is the answer."
Some important questions I've had answered with no answer. It is an uncomfortable truth.
