Fulfillment Quotes
|
Eric Hoffer:The happiness that is genuinely satisfying is accompanied by the fullest exercise of our faculties and the fullest realization of the world in which we live.
Goethe:It is the awareness of unfulfilled desires which gives a nation the feeling that it has a mission and a destiny.
Jane Wagner:Wherever a man may happen to turn, whatever a man may undertake, he will always end up by returning to the path which nature has marked out for him.
Oliver Wendell Holmes:A sobering thought: what if, at this very moment, I am living up to my full potential?
Thomas Moore:A man may fulfill the object of his existence by asking a question he cannot answer, and attempting a task he cannot achieve.
William James:Family life is full of major and minor crises -- the ups and downs of health, success and failure in career, marriage, and divorce -- and all kinds of characters. It is tied to places and events and histories. With all of these felt details, life etches itself into memory and personality. It's difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul.
The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated.
