More quotes by Mitch Albom
The length of your days does not belong to you.
Mitch Albom
Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do. Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it. Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others. Don't assume that it's too late to get involved.
Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
You can't get stuck on what should have happened. That doesn't help you.
Mitch Albom
Hello, Edward. I've been waiting for you.
Mitch Albom
But hurting ourselves to inflict pain on others is just another cry to be loved.
Mitch Albom
No matter where you live, the biggest defect we human beings have is our shortsightedness. We don't see what we could be.
Mitch Albom
No one gets left behind, remember?
Mitch Albom
Sharing tales of those we've lost is how we keep from really losing them.
Mitch Albom
Whenever you have two characters in a book, whether it's a novel or nonfiction, you run the risk that the reader is going to like one more than the other. They're going to read one chapter and say, 'I can't wait to get back to the other guy.
Mitch Albom
People are only mean when they're threatened, and that's what our culture does...And when you get threatened, you start looking out only for yourself. You start making money a god. It is all part of this culture.
Mitch Albom
Small towns are like metronomes with the slightest flick, the beat changes.
Mitch Albom
One withers, another grows.
