If you tell people you talk to God, they'll think you're religious, but if you say God talks to you, it's ten to one they'll think you're crazy.

Life is. I am. Anything might happen.
Robert Fulghum
Just when you thought that you already learned the way how to live, life changes - and you're left the same as you begun.
Robert Fulghum
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge.
Robert Fulghum
I fear the boredom that comes with not learning and not taking chances.
Robert Fulghum
Weddings seem to be magnets for mishap and for whatever craziness lurks in family closets. In more ways than one, weddings bring out the ding-dong on everybody involved.
Robert Fulghum
Sticks and stones will break our bones, but words will break our hearts.
Robert Fulghum
Why is love easy? I don’t know. And the raccoons don’t say.
Robert Fulghum
Life is lumpy. And a lump in the oatmeal, a lump in the throat, and a lump in a breast are not the same lump. One should learn the difference.
Robert Fulghum
We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness — and call it love — true love.
Robert Fulghum
Only an open mind still has room for new knowledge. What is outgrown and used up must be discarded to make room for what is yet to be learned. And much of the best thinking is done alone-in deserts, on beaches, in bed, behind closed doors. It is why we say we need to get away-to escape from clutter and busyness-to hear ourselves think.
Robert Fulghum
And good neighbors make a huge difference in the quality of life. I agree.
Robert Fulghum
Love the battle between chaos and imagination. Remember: Acting is living truthfully in imaginary circumstances. Remember: Acting is the way to live the greatest number of lives. Remember: Acting is the same as real life, lived intentionally. Never forget: The Fruit is out on the end of the limb. Go there.
Robert Fulghum
Share everything. Don't take things that aren't yours. Put things back where you found them.
Robert Fulghum
I've always thought anyone can make money. Making a life worth living, that's the real test.
Robert Fulghum
Imagination is more important than information. Einstein said that, and he should know. And they come. And they look. And we push. And they fly. We to stay and die on our beds. They to go and die howsoever, yet inspiring those who come after them to find their own edge. And fly.
Robert Fulghum
Even the finest workman needs to inspect his work critically.
Robert Fulghum
Every person passing through this life will unknowingly leave something and take something away. Most of this “something” cannot be seen or heard or numbered or scientifically detected or counted. It’s what we leave in the minds of other people and what they leave in ours. Memory. The census doesn’t count it. Nothing counts without it.
Robert Fulghum
For all my good intentions, there are days when things go wrong or I fall into old habits. When things are not going well, when I'm grumpy or mad, I'll realize that I've not been paying attention to my soul and I've not been following my best routine.
Robert Fulghum
You may never have proof of your importance but you are more important than you think. There are always those who couldn’t do without you. The rub is that you don’t always know who.
Robert Fulghum
I've always made a clear distinction between making a life and making a living.
