Repressed Quote of the Day

Welcome to these Repressed Quotes of the Day from my large collection of positive, romantic, and funny quotes.

Repressed anger still is anger, it just isn't expressed.
If you truly have no anger, you are blessed and joyful.

you just haven't expressed that anger.
Go ahead, express your anger briefly,
pound pillows, scream, curse.
Then take a deep breath, and get over it.

Plant trees for your great-grandchildren -
for future generations.
Create the legacy of a better world.
Leave this world a better place than you found it.

your great-grandchildren is a wonderful idea,

to represent the kind of legacy
you want to leave to future generations.

Which beliefs bring out the best in you?
Which beliefs hold you prisoner to yesterday
and limit your options for designing a great future?
Test your beliefs with as much objectivity
as you can bring to the subject.
Be willing to let go of those beliefs
that represent your parents' opinions,
or your communities opinions, rather than your own.
Those beliefs that withstand rigorous testing,
should become the foundation of your being -
your reason for living.
Take action on those beliefs.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Pity may represent little more

which prompts the mailing of a check,
