“the people around you are mirrors of your life- only spend time with those who reflect the good more than the bad”

“Do not bring people in your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts ... good relationships feel good. They feel right. They don't hurt. They're not painful. That's not just with somebody you want to marry, but it's with the friends that you choose. It's with the people you surround yourselves with.”

“The only thing money is good for, Marie, is buying time. The time to do the things you like.”

“To have more peace, as well as more time, start by letting go of the notion that time can be manipulated. Then, let go of the idea that it confines you. Instead, set out to use the time that is there for its true and best purpose – as the space within which you can live your life to the fullest.”

“Nothing is more important than this job.”“Good, I’m glad to hear that because it’s about to take up every minute of your life.”

“I loved looking at the stars—they put in perspective how small I was compared to the Universe. Each of those hundreds of billions of stars was its own sun. It could have its own solar system of planets orbiting around it, and some of those planets could even contain life. The vastness of possibilities in space reminded me that while my life felt important, it was tiny in the scheme of things. Human civilization was only a blink on the radar of time. Did anyone else have these moments of amazement over the existence of humanity, when they are in awe of how they are here, and alive, even if it’s only for a short while?”

“Life IS the gift you were given,So stop waiting around for your dues.Use it wisely and you’ll gift yourself abundantly.”
