People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can't find them, they make them. ~ George Bernard Shaw

I'm all in favour of believing that there's a purpose to life but I just want it to make a little sense, that's all. ~ Joe Rogan

I wasn't brought up in any particular religion or spiritual tradition, and I believe this was an advantage in a certain way. I have always felt free to explore possibilities, without being too much encumbered by those terrible burdens of dogmatically informed fear and guilt that have so badly affected many people. ~ Annie Lennox

I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive. ~ Joseph Campbell

The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers. ~ Dave Barry

Chinese Good Luck Mantra
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
Marry someone you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.
Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have, or sleep all you want.
When you say, "I'm sorry" look the person in the eye.
When you say, "I love you" mean it.
Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
Believe in love at first sight.
Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.
Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt, but it is the only way to live life completely.
In disagreements, fight fairly. Please, no name calling.
Don't judge people by their relatives.
Talk slowly but think quickly.
When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"
Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risks.
Say, "Bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
Remember the three "R's": respect for self; respect for others, responsibility for all your actions.
Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.
Spend some time alone.

Believe me, every man has his secret sorrows, which the world knows not; and ofttimes we call a man cold when he is only sad. ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Do not believe in anything simply because you heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observations and analysis, when you find anything with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it. ~ Buddha

I believe there is a god, but I don't believe that to truly believe you must sit with other believers one day a week for two hours. If God is god then I'm sure he/she will not mind if I choose to believe in him/her in my own way. ~ Rudiger Rapin

You might have to suspend some of your own programming in order to get to know something besides yourself. This is being open. This is what real education teaches. But this hardly suggests that you need to "believe" something in order to understand it. Such "belief" is not really belief. It's more like practicing something to see if it works. ~ Joe Baxter

You must be prepared to accept that the foundation for all that you believe is not only possibly wrong, but probably wrong. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch it to be sure. ~ Unknown

No one had ever called me beautiful... I was not lured into believing myself anything but rather plain. ~ Maya Angelou (from "Wouldn't Take Nothing for My Journey Now")

If a man suddenly appears before me with a big beard and locks and the works, and performed this huge fucking miracle and said to me, "I am God", I'd say, "Fuck man, I didn't believe in ya but OK, you got me." But until that day he can fuck right off. ~ Liam Gallagher

Faith is believing in the unbelievable, despite the evidence against it. ~ Gabriel Byrne
