More quotes by Mitch Albom
Critics have a problem with sentimentality. Readers do not. I write for readers.
Mitch Albom
You can be a mama's boy, be a daddy's boy, but you can't be both. So you cling to the one you think you might lose.
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
Once heaven is done with grandma, we'd like her back, thanks.
Mitch Albom
But our eyes are different, what you see ain't what I see.
Mitch Albom
The truth is, when our mothers held us, rocked us, stroked our heads -none of us ever got enough of that. We all yearn in some way to return to those days when we were completely taken care of - unconditional love, unconditional attention. Most of us didn't get enough.
Mitch Albom
Silence is worse when you know it won't be broken.
Mitch Albom
But they wanted you. Time is not something you give back. The very next moment may be answer to your prayer. To deny that is to deny the most important part of the future.
Mitch Albom
You know what that reflects? Unsatisfied lives. Unfulfilled lives. Lives that haven't found meaning . Because if you've found meaning in your life, you don't want to go back. You want to go forward. You want to see more, do more. You can't wait until sixty-five.
Mitch Albom
Having more does not keep you from wanting more. And if you always want more - to be richer, more beautiful, more well known - you are missing the bigger picture, and I can tell you from experience, happiness will never come
Mitch Albom
My own father didn't talk a lot about feelings or emotions.
Mitch Albom
...You can go your whole life collecting days, and none will outweigh the one you wish you had back.
Mitch Albom
Don't cling to things because everything is impermanent.
Mitch Albom
You marked the minutes, the old man said. But did you use them wisely? To be still? To cherish? To be grateful? To lift and be lifted?
Mitch Albom
Soon man will count all his days, and then smaller segments of the day, and then smaller still—until the counting consumes him, and the wonder of the world he has been given is lost.
Mitch Albom
Sometimes, love brings you together even as life keeps you apart.
Mitch Albom
Chicago keeps getting all these complete games. Im expecting 50 cent hot dogs.
Mitch Albom
Sometimes you have to do things when sad things happen.
Mitch Albom
We need to forgive ourselves. For all the things we didn't do. All the things we should have done. You can't get stuck on the regrets of what should have happened.
Mitch Albom
The truth is, once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.
