More quotes by Mitch Albom
You have to start over. That's what they say. But life is not a board game, and losing a loved one is never really starting over. More like continuing without.
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
Happiness in a tablet. This is our world. Prozac. Daxil. Xanax. Billions are spent to advertise such drugs. And billions are spent purchasing them. You don't even need a specific trauma, just 'general depression' is enough, or anxiety, as if sadness is as treatable as the common cold.

We’re gonna make up for that. We’re gonna live a long time together.
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
There is a big confusion in this country over what we want verses what we need...you need food. You want a chocolate sundae.

Secrets tear you apart.
Mitch Albom
Everything man does today to be efficient, to fill the hour? It does not satisfy. It only makes him hungry to do more. Man wants to own his existence. But no one owns time.
Mitch Albom
Shouldn't the world stop? Don't they know what has happened to me?
Mitch Albom
When you're rotten about yourself, you become rotten to everyone else, even those you love.
Mitch Albom
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.
Mitch Albom
You're not going to get to college - you're not even going to be qualified, even to go to a community college, if you don't address the basic problem of literacy in America. And there's no reason - no reason - for us to have that problem.
Mitch Albom
You can know the whole world and still feel lost in it.
Mitch Albom
We cannot stop what Heaven chooses.
Mitch Albom
Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.
Mitch Albom
Small towns are like metronomes with the slightest flick, the beat changes.
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
You can't get stuck on what should have happened. That doesn't help you.
Mitch Albom
You're not going to fix things by helping 65-year-olds or 75-year-olds for any long run.
Mitch Albom
You're not listening with your eyes.
