More quotes by Mitch Albom
Don't cling to things because everything is impermanent.
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
What she mostly wanted, he learned, was the same thing many people want--someone to notice she was there.
Mitch Albom
You're not a wave, you're a part of the ocean.
Mitch Albom
Silence is worse when you know it won't be broken.
Mitch Albom
Sacrifice is a part of life. It's supposed to be. It's not something to regret. It's something to aspire to.
Mitch Albom
We all know how to be a child.
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
In order to move on, you must understand why you felt what you did and why you no longer need to feel it.
Mitch Albom
Everyone is in such a hurry. People haven’t found meaning in their lives, so they’re running all the time looking for it. They think the next car, the next house, the next job. Then they find those things are empty, too, and they keep running. Once you start running, it’s hard to slow yourself down.
Mitch Albom
Don't let our outside labels or how fervent we look or zealous we are or how righteous we seem that's not how you measure yourself against other people. Everyone is a child of God if we really believed that, we'd treat each other better.
Mitch Albom
With Marguerite, he wanted only time—more and more time—and he was granted it, nighttimes and daytimes and nighttimes again.
Mitch Albom
Critics have a problem with sentimentality. Readers do not. I write for readers.
Mitch Albom
My own father didn't talk a lot about feelings or emotions.
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
She had been so consumed with escaping her own misery, she hadn't considered the misery she might inflict.
Mitch Albom
Never tell a child that something it's too hard
Mitch Albom
No one gets left behind, remember?
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
With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or sacrifice, we can’t appreciate what we have
