The drops of rain made a hole in the stone not by violence, but by oft falling.

Lucretius - Roman Philosopher

David ,do we still have chances to fall like rain and make hole in the stone?

Tapan,

I think so.  We just need to pick the stone that we want to make a hole in, the cause we really care about.

Cicero:

The function of wisdom is to discriminate between good and evil.

"The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the Impossible"

You will become as small as your controlling desire ... as great as your dominant aspiration.

Absolutely excellent quotes!  I especially liked the two about a man riding sidesaddle and giving a gun to a monkey.  Super stuff!

"There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered."

There's a deep wisdom to this one that really touched me. I always thought of the unchanging place that you can't go back to as home. I suppose that you can't go back to the place where you grew up as the same person, but that's not always a bad thing. I think being able to see how far you've come since childhood shows you how mature and valuable you are as an adult. But the child in us will always remember fondly the childhood, if it was a good one. And if it wasn't, we can believe in our strength because of having survived it. Thought-provoking quote, thanks!

I've seen extreme bravery from the least likely of people. Life is about the moments when it has all gone wrong. That's when we define ourselves.

The good news is that the moment you decide that what you know is more important than what you have been taught to believe, you will have shifted gears in your quest for abundance. Success comes from within, not from without.
