ah ik vind dit zo'n toffe topic!

Bepaalde (en dat zijn er veel) quotes hebben een sterke invloed op mij (soms ook negatief).

Ik zal er hier wat posten die mij echt raken...



Don't let what you can't do stop you from doing what you can do.
-J Wooden-


You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
-Christoffel Columbus-


Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.
-Albert Einstein-


If you want to be happy, be.
-Leo Tolstoy-
(kort maar bondig!)

Begin doing what you want to do now. we are not living in an eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake.
-M B Ray-


I shall pass through this life but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. For I shall never pass this way again.
-Etienne de Grellet-


This above all: to your own self be true
-William Shakespeare-


In three words I can sum up what I've learned about life: It goes on.
-Robert Frost-
(deze vind ik ook wel heel tof)


The way a crow 
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued. 
-Robert Frost-


deze vind ik ook zeer mooi, maar ik weet wel niet van waar hij komt:
As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point the wrong way







uit boeken:


The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by frost.

-John Ronald Reuel Tolkien-







Naast de vele emotionele momenten in de boeken van mevrouw Rowling hebben ook deze zinnen me geraakt:
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

The truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with caution.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure. 
(wat een flash forward niet? :wink: ) 

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
 (deze vind ik prachtig!!)

There is no good or evil: only power and those too weak to seek it.

There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other.

You think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? You think that we don't recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? Your father is alive in you, Harry, and shows himself plainly when you have need of him.

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
(deze vind ik ook zeer mooi!)

If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.
(dit vind ik een zeer emotionele)

What's comin' will come and we'll meet it when it does.

It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents - that there was all the difference in the world.

-Joanne Kathleen Rowling-


Ik hoop dat ik er niet te veel heb opgezet (hoewel het nog niet de helft is van wat ik er wou opzetten). Ik hoop ook dat jullie ze mooi vinden en er iets van kracht ofzo kunnen uithalen...

 :wink:
