Until one is committed There is hesitancy, the chance to draw back Always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and Creation) There is one elementary truth The ignorance which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: That the moment that one definitely commits ones self Then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one That would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision Raising in one’s favor all manner Of unforeseen incidents and meetings And material substance Which no one could have dreamt Would have come your way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. GOETHE

"These are the changes that help us to overcome hatred. Hatred can survive only as long as we feel trapped in the situation of a child who has no choice, who is forced to hold out in hopeless circumstances in order to survive. As soon as the adult sees an alternative, a way out of the trap, the hatred disappears of its own accord. It is then entirely unnecessary to preach morality, forgiveness or exercises in positive feeling." Alice Miller

I have to cheat and offer two: one serious, one more whimsical. “There is a curious paradox that no one can explain. Who understands the secret of the reaping of the grain? Who understands why Spring is born out of Winter's laboring pain? Or why we must all die a bit before we grow again? I do not know the answer; I merely know it's true. I hurt them for that reason; and myself a little bit, too.” -El Gallo The Fantasticks by Tom Jones And... “Coffee was only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self.” -Terry Pratchett Thud

I keep this in my wallet: “If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.” -Martin Luther King Jr. I am a middle school custodian, and this is my philosophy regarding my job. I love my job.
