Of Quotes n Such

Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned / Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned (I had never heard the full thing - only the 2nd half!)

Nothing in this world worth having, comes quick n easy!

The shell must break before the bird can fly. -- Tennyson

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. -- Helen Keller

There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error, experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works."

On Other People's Expectations
The only man who behaved sensibly was my tailor; he took my measurement anew every time he saw me, while all the rest went on with their old measurements and expected them to fit me.
(George Bernard Shaw)

The more realistic version of an existing quote:
To Err Is Human, To Forgive is Divine, And to forget Is Impossible!

Enjoy!
