Life Lessons Quote by Judge Judy Sheindlin — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Have a profession, a vocation, your own source of money. It's your security, girls. Nobody can take it away. It sets you free emotionally.”

“… As women get older, they become more powerful, more lucid, more sure of what they want. And that can be very challenging for a man.”

“Spending your money on things that give you pleasure once in a while is food for the soul.”

“Woe be the one who hasn’t made it by age thirty. There is something ludicrous about setting the bar for making it at thirty when the average life expectancy is seventy-four. The truth is that each of us has the capacity, if we so desire, to follow different paths at different points in our lives - to put an end to one pursuit and begin another. When you understand that, you’ll see that there is no such thing as failure.”

“If a woman has an education and a skill, she has guaranteed divorce insurance for her lifetime … What is divorce insurance? It’s an education, a skill, a profession, an ability to take care of yourself, come what may … The only insurance protection you have is financial independence.”

“The secret to your purpose is to find what you feel is important, and not pursue what others would think is important. When you think highly of yourself, me thinking highly of you will never be enough!”

“Sometimes in relationships, chasing more, expecting more.. ruins it..We keep asking for more attention, more effort, more love until the other person has nothing left to give. And by the time we realize it, the peace we once had is already gone. You know love isn’t always about getting more, sometimes it’s about knowing when to stop asking. Because “enough” is never less, we just don't see its worth until it slips away.”

“When a door closes, do not go looking for someone to blame. Look for what to do to become great.”

“Everything in the existing world seemed strange to him; it was as if the world had been created for some brief, mocking game. But this game of make-believe had dragged on for a long time,for eternity, and nobody felt like laughing anymore.”

“Walk away from that which pulls you away from a successful path. Whoever is pulling you backwards, whatever stops you from being lifted high, should not be in your surrounds.”
