Quotes about… Envelopes

ENVELOPE, n. The coffin of a document; the scabbard of a bill; the husk of a remittance; the bed-gown of a love-letter. Ambrose Bierce

Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it? Mark Twain

Letters are expectation packaged in an envelope. Shana Alexander

Quotes about… Peace

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. Buddha

When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others. Peace Pilgrim

Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures. John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Quotes about… Two

Love is the harmony of two souls singing together. Gregory J. P. Godek

There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them. Denis Waitley

Let us read and let us dance - two amusements that will never do any harm to the world. Voltaire

It takes two to speak the truth: one to speak, and another to hear. Henry David Thoreau

Quotes about… Wallpaper

We need less posturing and more genuine charisma. Charisma was originally a religious term, meaning “of the spirit” or “inspire.” It’s about letting God’s light shine through us. It’s about a sparkle in people that money can’t buy. It’s an invisible energy with visible effects. To let go, to just love, is not to fade into the wallpaper. Quite the contrary, it’s when we truly become bright. We’re letting our own light shine. Marianne Williamson

Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don’t have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there’s poetry written right on the bathroom wall. Ani Difranco

Home is the wallpaper above the bed, the family dinner table, the church bells in the morning, the bruised shins of the playground, the small fears that come with dusk, the streets and squares and monuments and shops that constitute one’s first universe. Henry Anatole Grunwald
