Positive quotes.

The current oldest person in the world is a British woman called Ethel Caterham (she's 115 years, 283 days old!). She was a teacher of young children and drove a car until the age of 97.

When asked about her longevity she said her secret's been...

"Taking everything in my stride, the highs and the lows"

and to...

"Never argue with anyone. I listen and I do what I like."

"I listen and do what I like." - I love her spunk! :)

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
 
‘As long as I was always just on the cusp of mastering my time, I could avoid the thought that what life was really demanding from me might involve surrendering the craving for mastery and diving into the unknown instead.’

Oliver Burkeman
 
"Solitude is for me a fount of healing which makes my life worth living. Talking is often torment for me, and I need many days of silence to recover from the futility of words."- Carl Jung
 
“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action — and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it… it will be lost. The world will not have it.”
Martha Graham
 
"The closer we get to the end of this journey - the more contradictions will accumulate, confusing issues we once thought were clear. I suppose the good news is that's how we'll know we're finally getting somewhere interesting". -James Flint from a show called Black Sails (excellent show)

the quote isn’t about health but rather about starting a revolution, but I think it fits nicely with our journey. The path towards progress isn’t necessarily neat and certainly isn’t linear. But the only way to see where the path leads is to walk it!
 
"He who needs nothing is a real king." - Kabir (15 century Indian mystic poet and saint)
