Leafing through a copy of Stylist magazine I came across a selection of “Wise Words” by Caroline Corcoran and selected a few that appealed to me. The following are the ones I picked out as ones I thought might appeal to our readers:
‘Nothing is a waste of time, if you use the experience wisely.’ August Rodin
‘No-one has ever become poor by giving.’ Anne Frank
‘Life is ours to be spent not saved.’ D H Lawrence
‘You have to really believe not only in yourself; you have to believe that the world is actually worth your sacrifices.’ Zaha Hadid
‘To know what is right, and not do it, is the worst cowardice.’ Confucius
‘Give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back and reasons to stay.’ Dalai Lama
‘Let us forget with generosity those who cannot love us.’ Pablo Neruda
‘Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.’ Winston Churchill.
‘The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.’ E.E. Cummings
‘The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.’
Dorothy Parker
