The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves,
but in our attitude towards them.
- Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Delicious, fattening, heavenly, evil, works of art, gluttonous -- same pastries.
The universe is wider than our views of it.
- Henry David Thoreau
Could we change our attitude,
we should not only see life differently,
but life itself would be different.
- Katherine Mansfield
We are injured and hurt emotionally,
not so much by other people
or what they say and don't say,
but by our own attitude and our own response.
- Maxwell Maltz
