If you want to say why they are favorites, please do. If not, the quote can speak for itself.
I have many as I am sure you do, too.

Hey Ami

My fav is an arabic proverb my dear father always taught me of it, it's about ambition. I'll try to translate it.

"Whom afraid of climbing the mountains; Will always live his life between the holes"

Best wishes

You're Welcome Ami

May be this translation is more appropriate "Whom afraid of climbing the mountains; Will always live his life between the holes"

Peace, Light, and Love

That is a good one, Ian. It has more credibility because you have a soul mate synastry

Hi Ami,

I have many but this is a favorite <3

God always has something for you,
a key for every problem,
a light for every shadow,
a relief for every sorrow
and
a plan for every tomorrow

and this one from the Bible

"Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people’s sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes."

and Al-Ikhlas from the Quran

He is God, the One and Unique;
God, the Eternal source and support
Of everything;
He begets not, and neither is He begotten;
And none is His equal

These have helped me in tough times and resonate in my heart

"Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess."

- Oscar Wilde

Now, before we all pervert that into eating more chocolate cake lol ... it really means that the more you put into something, the more you get out of it. Moderation will never help you reach your goals

^ I don't know about that.
With Oscar Wilde, it might very well have meant some indulgent substance (or activity).

I love it when people use the word "sheeple".
It lets me know not to take them seriously.

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket - safe, dark, motionless, airless - it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”

I love quotes

“Little do men perceive what solitude is, and how far it extendeth. For a crowd is not company, and faces are but a gallery of pictures, and talk but a tinkling cymbal, where there is no love.”

“YOU START GIVING TO OTHERS, AND YOU’LL START TO SEE YOUR PAIN FADE AWAY. IF YOU WANT TO KILL YOURSELF, KILL WHAT YOU DON’T LIKE. KILL NARCISSUS. I HAD AN OLD SELF THAT I KILLED. YOU CAN KILL YOURSELF TOO, BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN YOU GOT TO STOP LIVING.”

Society can only exist on the basis that there is some amount of polished lying and that no one says exactly what he thinks ~ Lin Yutang

It is in vain to hope to please all alike. Let a man stand with his face in what direction he will, he must necessarily turn his back on one half of the world. ~ George Prentice.

I present myself to you in a form suitable to the relationship I wish to achieve with you. ~ Luigi Pirandello

There is more stupidity around than hydrogen and it has a longer shelf life. ~ Frank Zappa

A weak mind does not accumulate force enough to hurt itself; stupidity often saves a man from going mad. ~ Oliver Holmes

Do not choose to be wrong for the sake of being different. ~ Lord Samuel

All empty souls tend to extreme opinion. ~ William Yeats

Did anyone ever have a boring dream? ~ Ralph Hodgson
