So, have we solved the secret of happiness? I believe so, he said Are you going to tell me? Yes.Ready? Ready. Be satisfied. That's it? Be greatful. That's it? For what you have.For the love you receive.And for what God has given you. That's it? He looked me in the eye.Then he sighed deeply. That's it.

Shouldn't the world stop? Don't they know what has happened to me?
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
Young men go to war. Sometimes because they have to, sometimes because they want to. Always, they feel they are supposed to. This comes from the sad, layered stories of life, which over the centuries have seen courage confused with picking up arms, and cowardice confused with laying them down.
Mitch Albom
Lost love is still love. It takes a different form, that's all.
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
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
You can't get stuck on what should have happened. That doesn't help you.
Mitch Albom
But man invents nothing God did not create first.
Mitch Albom
Love like rain, can nourish from above, drenching couples with soaking joy. But sometimes, under the angry heat of life, love dries on the surface and must nourish from below, tending to its roots, keeping itself alive.
Mitch Albom
the pain we suffer is a way to make us appreciate what comes next.
Mitch Albom
I often find that I rock back and forth with a beat in my head constantly. If i stop rocking, it usually means I've hit a snag in my writing.
Mitch Albom
Silence is worse when you know it won't be broken.
Mitch Albom
Don't get too attached to anything.
Mitch Albom
Dor: there is a reason God lmits our days. Victor: why? Dor: to make each one precious.
Mitch Albom
It’s not contagious, you know. Death is as natural as life. It’s part of the deal we made.

You're not listening with your eyes.
