I have collected many wonderful and empowering quotes from a variety of sources over the years offering profound bits of wisdom to nourish and enlighten the Spirit. I've listed many of my favorites below.
Many times I've also been asked for recommendations on books for spiritual growth or healing, so here are many of the authors that I believe are, or were, ahead of their time(s) in offering wonderful wisdom and fresh perspectives on spirituality, metaphysics, and the world around us.
This list, however, is by no means exhaustive so take what resonates to you in their writings and as always, honor your own truth. Namaste.

There are no limits. All things are possible. Truly live - for life is an act of faith.
It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters in the end.
The key to your happiness and contentment lies within you, within your own heart and mind. The way you start each day is very important; you can start off on the right foot or the wrong one. You can wake up with a song of joy and gratitude in your heart for the new day, for being alive, for the very wonder of living, and for being in tune with the harmony and rhythm of all life. You can expect the very best from the coming day and therefore draw it to you. Or, you can start the day with a chip on your shoulder, disgruntled and out of rhythm. You are responsible for what today will bring, and knowing it gives you an even greater responsibility than those souls who are not aware of it and therefore know no better. You cannot blame your state of mind on anyone else. It all rests with you. Eileen Caddy "The Spirit of Findhorn"
Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received - only what you have given: A full heart, enriched by honest service, love, and courage. St. Francis
