More quotes by Mitch Albom
When death takes your mother, it steals that word forever.
Mitch Albom
He had his time measures and he had her. That was his life. For as long as he could remember, it had been that way, Dor and Alli, even as children. I do not want to die, she whispered. You will not die. I want to be with you. You are.
Mitch Albom
What will you do with the time you have left?
Mitch Albom
The fact is, there is no foundation, no secure ground, upon which people may stand today if it isn’t the family. If you don’t have the support and love and caring and concern that you get from a family, you don’t have much at all. Love is so supremely important. As our great poet Auden said, ‘Love each other or perish’.
Mitch Albom
I also believe that parents, if they love you, will hold you up safely, above their swirling waters, and sometimes that means you'll never know what they endured, and you may treat them unkindly, in a way you otherwise wouldn't.
Mitch Albom
It's such a shame to waste time. We always think we have so much of it.
Mitch Albom
What if I lose you? You can't lose your mother, Charley.
Mitch Albom
But fates are connected in ways we don’t understand.
Mitch Albom
The dead sit at our tables long after they have gone.
Mitch Albom
Don't get too attached to anything.
Mitch Albom
No story sits by itself, Sometimes stories meet at corners and sometimes they cover one another completely, like stones beneath a river.
Mitch Albom
Once heaven is done with grandma, we'd like her back, thanks.
Mitch Albom
There is a time for hello and a time for good-bye. It's why the act of burying thing seems natural, but the act of digging them up does not.
Mitch Albom
With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or sacrifice, we can’t appreciate what we have
Mitch Albom
First and foremost, I would put a massive national emphasis on illiteracy with real markers that you could measure and real efforts to do a one-on-one kind of tutoring until kids can get up to snuff on that.
Mitch Albom
The backside of a mountain is a fight against human nature. You have to care as much about yourself on the way down as you did on the way up.
Mitch Albom
Belief, hard work, love–you have those things, you can do anything.
Mitch Albom
It’s not contagious, you know. Death is as natural as life. It’s part of the deal we made.
Mitch Albom
I don't use any fance quill pens or pads, because I can't read my own handwriting. I just use whatever computer is laying around, and start writing.
Mitch Albom
This is a story about a man named Eddie and it begins at the end, with Eddie dying in the sun.
