More quotes by Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
Much of what we called depression was really dissatisfaction, a result of setting a bar impossibly high or expecting treasures we weren't willing to work for.
Mitch Albom
It is far more comforting to think God listened and said no, than to think that nobody’s out there.

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
To know you're going to die, and to be prepared for it at any time. That's better. That way you can actually be more involved in your life while you're living.
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
Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralysing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.
Mitch Albom
When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times.
Mitch Albom
People often belittle the place where they were born.
Mitch Albom
the running boy is inside every man, no matter how old he gets.
Mitch Albom
but then she did. she died. no more visits, no more phone calls. And without even realizing it, I began to drift, as if my roots had been pulled, as if I were floating down some side branch of a river.
Mitch Albom
Heaven can be found in the most unlikely corners.
Mitch Albom
when your time came, it came, and that was that. You might say something smart on your way out, but you might just as easily say something stupid.
Mitch Albom
