Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
The secret to happiness...be satisfied and be grateful.
Mitch Albom
Bad news has no limits. We often feel it should, like a rainstorm that can't possibly get any heavier. But a storm can always worsen, & the burdens of life can too.
Mitch Albom
Sometimes, kids want you to hurt the way they hurt.
Mitch Albom
Heaven can be found in the most unlikely corners.
Mitch Albom
You count the hours you could have spent with your mother. It's a lifetime in itself.
Mitch Albom
I believe that you live on inside the hearts and minds of everyone you've touched while you were here on earth.
Mitch Albom
The basis of everything, of all knowledge, is the ability to read.
Mitch Albom
Had he known his death was imminent, he might have gone somewhere else. Instead, he did what we all do. He went about his dull routine as if all the days in the world were still to come. ~pg 4
Mitch Albom
Faith is about doing. You are how you act, not just how you believe.
