Day
(page 14)
There are two great days in a person's life - the day we are born and the day we discover why.
Every day is a new day, and you'll never be able to find happiness if you don't move on.
Having a baby is a life-changer. It gives you a whole other perspective on why you wake up every day.
Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend — or a meaningful day.
An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.
Read something of interest every day — something of interest to you, not to your teacher or your best friend or your minister/rabbi/priest. Comics count. So does poetry. So do editorials in your school newspaper. Or a biography of a rock star. Or an instructional manual. Or the Bible.
Research has shown that it takes 31 days of conscious effort to make or break a habit. That means, if one practices something consistently for 31 days, on the 32nd day it does become a habit. Information has been internalised into behavioural change, which is called transformation.
I'm a suck-it-up-and-move-on kind of person. Every day is a new day, and you'll never be able to find happiness if you don't move on.
Start every day off with a smile and get it over with.
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
While only one day of the year is dedicated solely to honoring our veterans, Americans must never forget the sacrifices that many of our fellow countrymen have made to defend our country and protect our freedoms.
Life is like an ice-cream cone, you have to lick it one day at a time.
If human beings had genuine courage, they'd wear their costumes every day of the year, not just on Halloween.
I will prepare and some day my chance will come.
A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
Many of the familiar little things that we use every day have typically evolved over a period of time to a state of familiarity. They balance form and function, elegance and economy, success and failure in ways that are not only acceptable, but also admirable.
History is made every day. The challenge is getting everyone to pay attention to it.
I'd always vaguely expected to outgrow my limitations. One day, I'd stop twisting my hair, and wearing running shoes all the time, and eating exactly the same food every day. I'd remember my friends' birthdays, I'd learn Photoshop, I wouldn't let my daughter watch TV during breakfast. I'd read Shakespeare.
I learned that, with grief, you have to take it one day at a time and learn how to find the happiness amid the heartbreak.
