Motivational Quote by Mitch Albom, Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Because if you've found meaning in your life, you don't want to go back. You want to go forward.”

“Take any emotion—love for a woman, or grief for a loved one, or what I’m going through, fear and pain from a deadly illness. If you hold back on the emotions—if you don’t allow yourself to go all the way through them—you can never get to being detached, you’re too busy being afraid. You’re afraid of the pain, you’re afraid of the grief. You’re afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails. “But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your head even, you experience them fully and completely. You know what pain is. You know what love is. You know what grief is. And only then can you say, ‘All right. I have experienced that emotion. I recognize that emotion. Now I need to detach from that emotion for a moment’.”

“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.”

“It’s very simple. As you grow, you learn more. If you stayed at twenty-two, you’d always be as ignorant as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, you know. It’s growth. It’s more than the negative that you’re going to die, it’s also the positive that you understand you’re going to die, and that you live a better life because of it.”

“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”

“Learn to trust the journey, even if you do not understand it right now. Life has a way of shaping the unexpected; often, the very things you once resisted or never imagined become the hidden necessities of who you are meant to become.”

“Breaking a habit does not matter but reclaiming it does. Start the same again even if you break it.”

“Don't give up on yourself when life gets a little harder. Instead, love harder those who do value your life”

“It takes a man to know what another man is going through.”

“Live boldly. Push yourself. Don't settle.”
