What's your favourite quote?

Usually by someone or something you came up with. Something hard hitting, humourous or worth a thought.

I often say,

"What you see is a perspective and not necessarily the fact. What you hear is only an opinion and not necessarily the truth."

I have a Facebook page where i post quotes and in one i write, "Our worries are nothing but a figment of our imagination."

My favourite book where i find really good quotes is "The Meditations by Marcus Aurelius"

I like that! Mine is on the same topic. Its my favorite quote because it has literally calmed me down out of near anxiety attacks.
"Nothing is true." - Byron Katie

Meaning we can never label an event, put our own meanings on things, label ourselves, or anyone else. every thought is a whimsical breeze really..it could never define truth, because truth cant be defined.

@Coralmist I said it on my facebook page:

"Our worries are nothing but a figment of our imagination."

@Grateful4you Exactly...its fear and a bunch of random, spiraling, unproven beliefs that was installed years ago, but this data is NOT truth...🌺
@Coralmist Exactly right. What used to be hardwired into my thought processes no longer exists, it's been well over a decade since I've needed or wanted a Benzo.
Such an insightful quote…love it!

I have a few faves that I’ve used since my childhood….it sort of helps me be the belligerent optimist that I am. 😅

‘All for the Best!’

‘Tomorrow is another day’

And

Thank you…it certainly gives me hope…and helps me look forward to the future. 😇💙@SW-User

Very wise. One of my favorites is from my father:

You can learn something from every person you meet—even if it’s only whom to avoid.

The one you wrote on Facebook reminds of Winston Churchill "I had a lot of worries in my life most of which never happened.

@Forgetmeknot That's interesting.

@Marceline Nice. I heard this one in a movie i saw yesterday.

"If stupidity was painful then you would be in agony "

When you are going through hell, keep going. Churchill.
