Juxtaposed Quotes #1

Sometimes I like to juxtapose quotes that feel somehow related. 

How to Actualize the Self

Actualization of the self cannot be sought as a goal in its own right…Rather, it seems to be a by-product of active commitment of one’s talents to some cause, outside the self, such as the quest for beauty, truth, or justice.

--Sidney M. Jourard

The Meaning of Life

The meaning of life cannot be told; it has to happen to a person.

--Ira Progoff

Everyday Happiness

Everyday happiness means getting up in the morning, and you can’t wait to finish your breakfast. You can’t wait to do your exercises. You can’t wait to put on your clothes. You can’t wait to get out – and you can’t wait to come home, because the soup is hot.

--George Burns
