Mitch Albom
Love- the infatuation kind- 'he's so handsome, she's so beautiful'- that can shrivel. As soon as something goes wrong, that kind of love can fly out the window.
Mitch Albom
We need to forgive ourselves. For all the things we didn't do. All the things we should have done. You can't get stuck on the regrets of what should have happened.
Mitch Albom
We're Tuesday people.
Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
I give myself a good cry if I need it. But then I concentrate on the good things still in my life. I don't allow myself any more self-pity than that. A little each every morning, a few tears, and that's all.
Mitch Albom
It is far more comforting to think God listened and said no, than to think that nobody’s out there.
Mitch Albom
Chicago keeps getting all these complete games. Im expecting 50 cent hot dogs.
Mitch Albom
Lost love is still love.
Mitch Albom
No one gets left behind, remember?
Mitch Albom
My own father didn't talk a lot about feelings or emotions.
Mitch Albom
Bad news has no limits. We often feel it should, like a rainstorm that can't possibly get any heavier. But a storm can always worsen, & the burdens of life can too.
Mitch Albom
The basis of everything, of all knowledge, is the ability to read.
Mitch Albom
The manager once called me the 'best freak' in his stable, and, sad as it sounds, I took pride in that. When you are an outcast, even a tossed stone can be cherished.
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
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
