More quotes by Mitch Albom

Adam hid in the Garden of Eden. Moses tried to substitute his brother. Jonah jumped a boat and was swallowed by a whale...Man likes to run from God. It's a tradition.
Mitch Albom
I asked myself, 'Am I going to withdraw from the world, like most people do, or am I going to live?' I decided I am going to live - or at least try to live - the way I want, with dignity, with courage, with humor, with composure.
Mitch Albom
What she mostly wanted, he learned, was the same thing many people want--someone to notice she was there.
Mitch Albom
