More quotes by 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
You are not your past.
Mitch Albom
Sometimes, kids want you to hurt the way they hurt.
Mitch Albom
People often belittle the place where they were born.
Mitch Albom
Love like rain, can nourish from above, drenching couples with soaking joy. But sometimes, under the angry heat of life, love dries on the surface and must nourish from below, tending to its roots, keeping itself alive.
Mitch Albom
Scenery without solace is meaningless.
Mitch Albom
Learn what you do not know. Understand the consequences of counting the moments.
Mitch Albom
Adam hid in the Garden of Eden. Moses tried to substitute his brother. Jonah jumped a boat and was swallowed by a whale...Man likes to run from God. It's a tradition.
Mitch Albom
Kids chase the love that eludes them, and for me, that was my father's love. He kept it tucked away, like papers in a briefcase. And I kept trying to get in there.
Mitch Albom
Silence was his escape, but silence is rarely a refuge.
Mitch Albom
I like myself better when I'm with you.
Mitch Albom
What if I lose you? You can't lose your mother, Charley.
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
At that moment i felt lonelier than i'd ever felt before, and that loneliness seemed to squat in my lungs and crush all but my most minimal breathing. There was nothing left to say. Not about this. Not about anything.
Mitch Albom
When you're rotten about yourself, you become rotten to everyone else, even those you love.
Mitch Albom
If God wants it, it will happen.
Mitch Albom
For years I wrote in my basement. More recently I graduated to one floor above, an office with all my books and music and - ta da! - a window.
Mitch Albom
Remember, the only difference between 'marital' and 'martial' is where you put the 'i'.
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
We do not realize the sound the world makes -- unless, of course, it comes to a stop. Then, when it starts, it sounds like an orchestra.
