Turmoil Quote of the Day

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

When we hate our enemies, we are
giving them power over us:
power over our sleep, our appetites,
our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness.
Our enemies would dance with joy if only
they knew how they were worrying us,
lacerating us, and getting even with us!
Our hate is not hurting them at all,
but our hate is turning our own days
and nights into a hellish turmoil.
- Dale Carnegie

- Robert Heinlein

Age does not protect you from love.

we hope will call us "old friend" in the years to come.
