Sunday Inspiration: Throwing Something Back
I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.
—Maya Angelou
Sunday Inspiration: What We Have
It’s not so much what we have in this life that matters. It’s what we do with what we have.
—Fred Rogers
Sunday Inspiration: Heroes
We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say, “It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.” Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.
—Fred Rogers
Sunday Inspiration: Gifts
We all have different gifts, so we all have different ways of saying to the world who we are.
—Fred Rogers
Sunday Inspiration: Giving and Taking
Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting.
—Elizabeth Bibesco
Sunday Inspiration: Pain
Pain is a kindly, hopeful thing, a certain proof of life, a clear assurance that all is not yet over, that there is still a chance. But if your heart has no pain—well, that may betoken health, as you suppose: but are you certain that it does not mean that your soul is dead?
—A. J. Gossip
Sunday Inspiration: Peace
It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.
—Eleanor Roosevelt
Sunday Inspiration: Optimism
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
—Winston Churchill
Sunday Inspiration: The Price of Anything
The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
—Henry David Thoreau
