Look
(page 7)
Keep looking up! I learn from the past, dream about the future and look up. There's nothing like a beautiful sunset to end a healthy day.
One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.
Fitness starts at home. What you eat is what you will look, just as what you sow is what you reap. Eat good food: eat fruits, vegetables, healthy grains, and don't go for sweet and trite food.
And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.
Trees and plants always look like the people they live with, somehow.
I grew up in the South under segregation. So, I know what terrorism feels like — when your father could be taken out in the middle of the night and lynched just because he didn't look like he was in an obeying frame of mind when a white person said something he must do. I mean, that's terrorism, too.
Every new car, you open the door, and you look at all those internal mellifluous swoopy bits, and they have no meaning.
I don't look to find an educated person in the ranks of university graduates, necessarily. Some of the most educated people I know have never been near a university.
God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.
Never look backwards or you'll fall down the stairs.
The only passion that guides me is for the truth... I look at everything from this point of view.
When you feel good, you look good. And vice versa: When you look good, you feel good.

Consider a tree for a moment. As beautiful as trees are to look at, we don't see what goes on underground — as they grow roots. Trees must develop deep roots in order to grow strong and produce their beauty. But we don't see the roots. We just see and enjoy the beauty. In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree.
I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more.
I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
Teenagers talk about the idea of having each other's 'full attention'. They grew up in a culture of distraction. They remember their parents were on cell phones when they were pushed on swings as toddlers. Now, their parents text at the dinner table and don't look up from their BlackBerry when they come for end-of-school day pickup.
When an animal dies, it gives you the chance to love another animal. That's an insightful and profound way to look at it.
Sometimes I wake up and think I look horrible. And sometimes I see a strong woman.
For me, every hour is grace. And I feel gratitude in my heart each time I can meet someone and look at his or her smile.
