Quotes

Here are some quotes that i've read up, or seen in books, posters.
This also serves as a test feed. Want to see if i can finally get it up.

Got this from a book. On Fear.

Fear is like a wound within our emotions. You heal a fear much like you heal a cut in your hand. If you ignore the cut, it will get infected. But it will heal itself if you recognize its existence. What kind of fear is it? Poverty, loneliness or rejection? Then use common sense. Don't let the fear get infected. Often we burn 70% of our emotional energy on what we fear might happen (90% of which won't happen). By devoting our energy to our other emotions, we will heal naturally.

Got this from a newspaper article in the Straits times:
zen means to return to this moment. Hear the bird, hear the rain, feel the wind. That's zen. Fully living in the moment. When we're eating, eat. When we're walking, walk.

From a movie?
Fate does not seek our consent.

Saw this on a poster:
6 most important words: i admit i made a mistake
5 most important words: you did a good job
4 most important words: what is your opinion
3 most important words: if you please
2 most important words: thank you
1 most important words: we
least most important word: i

Got this through my counselor:
How to handle difficult clients.
Apologize. I'm sorry that you're feeling this way. With all due respect, i don't think you are in a rational state of mind right now to talk. I will take my leave and come back in 5 minutes time, hopefully you will have recovered by then.

Powerful words all..
