Find the ridiculous

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Saturday, 31 Jan '09

“Look for the ridiculous in everything and you will find it.”

--Jules Renard

My Thoughts:
As I have told I my previous thoughts that a person, specially the so called knowledgeable men, would see everything as ridiculous.

But if you understand, then every thing is what it is for a reason. And it is totally ridiculous to think that something is ridiculous because it is not the way you wanted.

Magical Roses

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Friday, 30 Jan '09

“All of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.”

--Dale Carnegie

My Thoughts:
Don’t we all day dream? We all do that. We think of big things, and that’s OK. There is no harm in thinking big. In fact you should think big to act big.

But that does not mean that you be lost in your big thoughts and dream and stop living your present and real life. No, enjoy the present because it’s a present so that you can achieve your dreams.

Spotlight of hard work

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 29 Jan '09

“Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all.”

--Sam Ewing

My Thoughts:
Hard work not only highlights the character of a person but also many more things. It tells you how a person looks at things.

His attitude towards life and work, how he handles situations and take decisions.

Amusingly arrogant

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Wednesday, 28 Jan '09

“Nothing can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is his own.”

--Sidney J. Harris

My Thoughts:
Just enjoy the quote!

Intelligent or sensible?

“The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything.”

--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

My Thoughts:
This happens with most of us. When we think we know something or about something, we want that our way. And when that stuff is not the way you want, it seems ridiculous.

Where as the sensible man, even he knows that something, would know that things are the way they are for a particular reason. That does not mean that we need not improve things, of course we should but without looking at things as if they were ridiculous.

Four important looks

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Monday, 26 Jan '09

“The four important looks in your life - Look back and get experience, Look forward and see hope, Look around and find reality, Look within and find confidence.”

--Anonymous

My Thoughts:
This is such a wonderful quote! Just see how by merely looking at four different places can find four precious things.

Look at your past, learn from mistakes and get experience. Look optimistically at your future and see hope. Look at present and things around and you know what’s happening and Look at yourself and find out what are you capable of and be confident.

--Michael Crichton
