More quotes by Mitch Albom
When you come to the end, that's where God begins.
Mitch Albom
First and foremost, I would put a massive national emphasis on illiteracy with real markers that you could measure and real efforts to do a one-on-one kind of tutoring until kids can get up to snuff on that.
Mitch Albom
Death doesn't just take someone, it misses someone else, and in the small distance between being taken and being missed, lives are changed.
Mitch Albom
I feel ashamed now that I tried to take my life. It is such a precious thing. I had no one to talk me out of my despair and that was a mistake. You need to keep people close. You need to give them access to your heart.
Mitch Albom
There is everything you know and there is everything that happens. When the two do not line up, you make a choice.
Mitch Albom
Tears are okay [Morrie Schwartz]
Mitch Albom
If you could pack for heaven, this was how you'd do it, touching everything, taking nothing.

Sometimes, they say, the moon is so busy with the new souls of the world that it disappears from the sky. That is why we have moonless nights. But in the end, the moon always returns, as do we all.
Mitch Albom
For better or for worse, I've watched people die in front of me. I see how they are in the end. And they're not cynical. In the end, they wanna hold somebody's hand. And that's real to me.
Mitch Albom
Well, for one thing, the culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. We're teaching the wrong things. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it. Create your own. Most people can't do it.
Mitch Albom
Holding on to things only breaks your heart.
Mitch Albom
Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.
Mitch Albom
He never spoke of that night again, not to your mother, not to anyone else. He was ashamed for her, for Mickey, for himself. In the hospital, he stopped speaking altogether. Silence was his escape, but silence is rarely a refuge. His thoughts still haunted him.' ~pg 139
Mitch Albom
I had a very high-grade publisher tell me I was incapable of writing a memoir.
Mitch Albom
the running boy is inside every man, no matter how old he gets.
Mitch Albom
Life is a series of pulls back and forth... A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. Most of us live somewhere in the middle. A wrestling match...Which side win? Love wins. Love always wins
Mitch Albom
It is far more comforting to think God listened and said no, than to think that nobody’s out there.
Mitch Albom
Now you know how badly someone wanted you, Charley. Children forget that sometimes. They think of themselves as a burden instead of a wish granted.
Mitch Albom
But man invents nothing God did not create first.
Mitch Albom
Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do. Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it. Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others. Don't assume that it's too late to get involved.
