Quote of the Day — and Month — and Year

October 15, 2011 Rachel Quotes

I very much need to read and recite this quote every day:

“Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are.”

— St Augustine of Hippo

How about you, dear readers? Do these words speak to you?

Best. Quote. Ever.

March 15, 2011 Rachel Quotes

From Hafiz of Persia:

“Fear is the cheapest room in the house. I would like to see you living in better conditions.”

I could meditate on that quote for a good long time. It’s comforting, empowering, and full of compassion.

Words to live by.
