This is not a quote. It is actually part of a poem, but I think it says so much and makes one think about their life.

"They are not long, the days of wine and roses, Out of a misty dream Our path emerges for awhile, then closes within a dream." By Ernest Dowson

"You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore before you decide to be happy" by Jane Marczewski.

Jane was a contestant on America's Got Talent. She won the golden buzzer from Simon. She had such a beautiful voice and very talented as a songwriter. Jane passed away in February 2022 of cancer. God bless you!

My favorite quotes are from The Lord of the Rings.

1- Not all those who wander are lost.

2- All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

3- Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

And this is my favorite poem:

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. 

Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.

Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is rare and don't throw it away. 

By, Stephen Hawking

Some of my favorites are from a light finance book which I just finished reading.

“The point is that the ceiling of social comparison is so high that virtually no one will ever hit it. Which means it's a battle that can never be won, or that the only way to win is to not fight to begin with —to accept that you might have enough, even if it's less than those around you.”

“A plan is only useful if it can survive reality. And a future filled with unknowns is everyone’s reality. A good plan doesn’t pretend this weren’t true; it embraces it and emphasizes room for error.”
