More quotes by 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
I would lying if I said I would laugh in the face of death.

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
She had been so consumed with escaping her own misery, she hadn't considered the misery she might inflict.
Mitch Albom
I don't mean you disregard every rule of your community. I don't go around naked, for example. I don't run through red lights. The little things, I can obey. But the big things- how we think, what we value- those you must choose yourself. You can't let anyone-or any society- determine those for you. ' -Morrie Schwartz
Mitch Albom
But man invents nothing God did not create first.
Mitch Albom
Don't get too attached to anything.
Mitch Albom
Love each other or die.
Mitch Albom
Silence is worse when you know it won't be broken.
Mitch Albom
And if you don´t commit? I asked. Your choice. But you miss what´s on the other side. What´s on the other side? Ah he smiled. A happiness you cannot find alone
Mitch Albom
No, Edward. You are here so I can teach you something. All the people you meet here have one thing to teach you.
