| FAVOURITE QUOTES |
| HAPPY QUOTES “You don’t have to suffer to create. You don’t have to suffer to learn. I was led to believe that the only was I could evolve was if I suffered, and now I realize I can evolve - probably faster even - if I’m not suffering” - Alanis Morrisette, Nov 1999 |
| SAD QUOTES “At first nothing happened, but as I approached the bottom of the bottle, red and blue lights began to flash before my eyes. The bottle slid from my fingers and I lay down. The silence drew off, baring the pebbles and shells and all the tatty wreckage of my life. Then, at the rim of vision, it gathered itself and in one sweeping tide, rushed me to sleep” - Sylvia Plath, ‘The Bell Jar’ |
| QUOTES ABOUT DEATH “I was much too far out all my life and not waving but drowning” - Stevie Smith, ‘Not Waving But Drowning’ “Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep… Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die….” - Anonymous, ‘Do Not Stand At My Grave and Weep’ “Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land…Yet if you should forget me for a while and afterwards remember, do not grieve…Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad” - Christina Rossetti, ‘Remember’ "You lived your life like a candle in the wind, never knowing who to cling to when the rain sets in" - Elton John & Berne Taupin, 'Candle In The Wind' |
| RELIGIOUS QUOTES “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain:for the former things are passed away.” - Revelations 21:4 “The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times if trouble. Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you” - Psalm 9, 9-10 |
