“Be careful what you say. It comes true. It comes true. I had to leave home in order to see the world logically, logic the new way of seeing. I learned to think that mysteries are for explanation. I enjoy the simplicity. Concrete pours out of my mouth to cover the forests with freeways and sidewalks. Give me plastics, periodical tables, t.v. dinners with vegetables no more complex than peas mixed with diced carrots. Shine floodlights into dark corners: no ghosts.”

“Be careful what you think, because your thoughts run your life. Do you want to be happy tomorrow? Then sow seeds of happiness today -count blessings, memorize Bible verses, pray, sing hymns, spend time with encouraging people. Do you want to guarantee tomorrow's misery? Then wallow in a mental mud pit of self-pity or guilt or anxiety today assume the worst, beat yourself up, rehearse your regrets, complain to complainers.”

“Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.”

“Be careful what you wish for most in life. We often grow up idolizing people — artists, actors, thinkers — building perfect images of them in our hearts. They become symbols of hope, greatness, even salvation. But sometimes, when fate finally lets us meet them or work beside them, the illusion fades. You see their flaws, their egos, their indifference. You witness the human behind the legend — and it can feel like losing a part of your own dream. It’s not that they’re bad people… they’re just real. And reality rarely matches imagination. That’s the danger of putting people on pedestals. The higher you place them, the harder they fall when you finally see them up close. Sometimes, you’re better off keeping certain people at a distance — as light in your sky, not someone standing beside you. Because once that illusion breaks, you don’t just lose your idol… you lose a part of the hope you once carried inside.”** — Sami Abouzid”
