Default Re: Quotes/aphorisms that have actually helped you in life

"[The] purpose of human life is to love whoever is around to be loved."

~~Just one of the many wonderful quotations by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. (RIP) a man whom I admire perhaps more than any other, living or dead.

"Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."

An admirable sentiment that our current leaders (and soon to be leaders) might do well to dwell upon.

From the exceedingly eloquent and quotable Martin Luther King Jr.
