General Quotes

“The true reader reads every work seriously in the sense that he reads it whole-heartedly, makes himself as receptive as he can.

He will never commit the error of trying to munch whipped cream as if it were venison.”
― C.S. Lewis

Say goodbye to your inner critic, and take this pledge to be kinder to yourself and others.  This is a call to arms. A call to be gentle, to be forgiving, to be generous with yourself. The next time you look into the mirror, try to let go of the story line that says you're too fat or too sallow, too ashy or too old, your eyes are too small or your nose too big; just look into the mirror and see your face. When the criticism drops away, what you will see then is just you, without judgment, and that is the first step toward transforming your experience of the world.”
― Oprah Winfrey
