I find Steven Wright quotes funny. Here are a few of them I found online. “Last year I went fishing with Salvador Dali. He was using a dotted line. He caught every other fish.” “All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand.” “OK, so what's the speed of dark?” “How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink?” “Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have.” “My apartment was robbed and everything was replaced with exact replicas...I told my roommate and he said 'Do I know you?'” “Yesterday I told a chicken to cross the road. It said, "What for?"” “I Xeroxed my watch. Now I have time to spare.” “I put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time.” “I wrote a song, but I can't read music so I don't know what it it. Every once in a while I'll be listening to the radio and I say, ‘I think I might have written that’.” “I installed a skylight in my apartment...The people who live above me are furious!” “My house is on the median strip of a highway. You don't really notice, except I have to leave the driveway doing 60 MPH.” “I bought a self learning record to learn Spanish. I turned it on and went to sleep; the record got stuck. The next day I could only stutter in Spanish.” “I spilled spot remover on my dog. He's gone now.”

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
Work hard in silence, let success be your noise.
Sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage, and something great will come of it.
You have got what it takes, but it will take everything you have got.
I don't know who said these expect the one about 20 seconds of courage is from the movie we bought a zoo

inner strength so that the world will
not blow your candle out.~Katherine Dunham
Words of Wisdom
I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible,
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance,
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom,
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.~Dawna Markova
The self is hidden in the deepest cave of
the heart.~The Upanishads
Words of Wisdom Daily Faith Affirmation
Begin with loss and see how
the world contradicts you,
How the horizon implies that beyond it
the water is not empty
but full of ships
all docking at another island.~Lynn Emanuel
