More quotes by Mitch Albom
But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin.
Mitch Albom
Adam hid in the Garden of Eden. Moses tried to substitute his brother. Jonah jumped a boat and was swallowed by a whale...Man likes to run from God. It's a tradition.
Mitch Albom
This is part of what a family is about, not just love. It's knowing that your family will be there watching out for you. Nothing else will give you that. Not money. Not fame. Not work.
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
For many of us, the curtain had just come down on childhood.
Mitch Albom
Courage is confused with picking up arms and cowardness is confused with laying them down.
Mitch Albom
He did not know that the child who had asked for yesterday was now seeking to own tomorrow.
Mitch Albom
If you're always battling against getting older, you're always going to be unhappy, because it's going to happen anyhow.
Mitch Albom
What in life can love not penetrate?
Mitch Albom
Life has to end, love doesn't.
Mitch Albom
Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.
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
Holding on to things only breaks your heart.
Mitch Albom
You knew me. You knew that person, but you don't know the person I'm trying to become... You are not your past!
Mitch Albom
You can find something truly important in an ordinary minute.
Mitch Albom
Forgive yourself. Forgive others. Don't wait.
Mitch Albom
I like myself better when I'm with you.
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
Giving to other people makes me feel alive. Not my car or my house. Not what I look like in the mirror. When I give my time, when I can make someone smile after they were feeling sad.
Mitch Albom
Learn what you do not know. Understand the consequences of counting the moments.
