Crisis


... all lives - are either in a crisis, coming out of a crisis, or headed for a crisis. (Andy Andrews, The Noticer, p. 31)

If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I wouldn't pass it around. Wouldn't be doing anybody a favor. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it. I don't say I embrace trouble. That's as bad as treating it as an enemy. But I do say, meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it and had better be on speaking terms with it. (Oliver Wendell Holmes in The Book Of Choices by Mike Magee, M.D., p. 205

I Want To Be Around You

When a person is negative, complaining, and disagreeable, other people stay away. And that person receives less encouragement and fewer opportunities -- because no one wants to be around him. (Andy Andrews, The Noticer, p. 14) 4/Jan/2011 14:53
