Life Lessons Quote by T.J. Klune — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“He couldn't believe it was only Wednesday. And it was made worse when he realized it was actually Tuesday.”

“That’s life,” I told him quietly. “You never know what is out there. You just have to hope and trust that you’ll see the other person again.”

“I’m Gus,” he said. “That’s it.”

“Otter! Otter! Otter!”

“The world is changing,” I say, my voice the strongest it’s been since I started speaking ten minutes ago. “Every day the world is changing. Sometimes, though, it’s not for the better. Sometimes it seems as if we’re taking two steps back for every one step forward. Some of us are still being told we aren’t good enough because of the color of our skin. Because of our socioeconomic background. Because of how we were raised.” I hesitate, but it’s now or never. “Or because of who we choose to love. I encourage you… no, I beg you to go out there and make the world a better place. Make it something we can look back and be proud of. That we can say at this moment we made the decision to be the catalyst for change, that we rose up past every single prejudice facing us and held our heads high.”

“Beyond that closed door, someone faced the same situation before and held on to the arms of hope. As you find yourself in a situation where there seems to be no hope, do not lose hope.”

“Reduce the number of items in your home; reduce the crowds around you; reduce the thoughts in your head. There are so many things around you and in your mind, they're all like curtains, preventing you from seeing what's around you, in front of you, behind you, left and right. Reduce these as much as you can, get rid of them as much as you can! Simplify and clarify your surroundings and your mind, let the universe see you, and you the universe! There's so much fog around you; clear it away!”

“For heaven's sake," panted Archimedes, bobbing in the dark air beside him, "stop flying like a woodpecker. Anybody would take you for a Little Owl, if the creatures had been imported. What you are doing is to give yourself flying speed with one flick of your wings. You then rise on that flick until you have lost flying speed and begin to stall. Then you give another just as you are beginning to drop out of the air, and do a switch-back. It is confusing to keep up with you.”

“Promise is more worthy than Time and Money.”
