“And the dream that our mind had sketched in haste Shall others continue, but never complete. For none upon earth can achieve his scheme; The best as the worst are futile here: We wake at the self-same point of the dream, All is here begun, and finished elsewhere.” MindSelfDreamEarthAchieveWorstFinishedElsewhereSchemesHaste Author:Victor Hugo
“The enemy often tries to make us attempt and start many projects so that we will be overwhelmed with too many tasks, and therefore achieve nothing and leave everything unfinished. Sometimes he even suggests the wish to undertake some excellent work that he foresees we will never accomplish. This is to distract us from the prosecution of some less excellent work that we would have easily completed. He does not care how many plans and beginnings we make, provided nothing is finished.” TryingDoeSometimesCareWishEnemyPlansAchieveProjectsTasksAccomplishFinishedExcellentOverwhelmedUnfinishedProsecutionExcellent Work Author:Saint Francis de Sales
“Over the last few days, I have been able to see my life as from a great altitude, as a sort of landscape, and with a deepening sense of the connection of all its parts. This does not mean I am finished with life. On the contrary, I feel intensely alive, and I want and hope in the time that remains to deepen my friendships, to say farewell to those I love, to write more, to travel if I have the strength, to achieve new levels of understanding and insight.” IfsWantFeelsWritingMeanDoeHas BeensAbleLastsUnderstandingLevelsAliveAchieveConnectionsRemainsInsightFinishedContraryLandscapeFarewellMy Friendship Author:Oliver $
