This is an exercise in power - the power of mind over matter. If you don't mind being inadequate, it doesn't matter.
Robert Fulghum
Image
The examined life is no picnic.
Robert Fulghum
Image
To ponder is not to brood or grieve or even meditate. It is to wonder at a deep level.
Robert Fulghum
Image
A giraffe has a black tongue twenty-seven inches long and no vocal cords. A giraffe has nothing to say. He just goes on giraffing.
Robert Fulghum
Image
It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need, and our air force has to have a bake-sale to buy a bomber.

Once you know where the roller coaster is going, are you in for the ride?
Robert Fulghum
Image
There is nothing in your budget for joy. No books, no flowers, no music, not even a cold beer. And there is nothing in your budget to give away to someone else. We don’t help people who don’t have better values than you do.
Robert Fulghum
Image
You will continue to read stories of crookedness and corruption - of policemen who lie and steal, doctors who reap where they do not sew, politicians on the take. Don't be misled. They are news because they are the exceptions.
Robert Fulghum
Image
If only the scientific experts could come up with something to get it out of our minds. One cup of fixit fizzle that will lift the dirt from our lives, soften our hardness, protect our inner parts, improve our processing, reduce our yellowing and wrinkling, improve our natural color, and make us sweet and good.
Robert Fulghum
Image
Desire is the intangible quality that has more impact on success than talent, education, or IQ. You can't see desire, but you can feel its presence, and see its results in the lives of successful people.
Robert Fulghum
Image
Ignorance and power and pride are a deadly mixture, you know.
Robert Fulghum
Image
The world does not need tourists who ride by in a bus clucking their tongues. The world as it is needs those who will love it enough to change it, with what they have, where they are.
Robert Fulghum
Image
I've always thought anyone can make money. Making a life worth living, that's the real test.
Robert Fulghum
Image
To be human is to keep rattling the bars of the cage of existence, hollering, 'What's it for?'
Robert Fulghum
Image
But love may have to be left off the exam. Most of us will never learn.
Robert Fulghum
Image
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.
Robert Fulghum
Image
I've always made a clear distinction between making a life and making a living.
Robert Fulghum
Image
Making a living and having a life are not the same thing. Making a living and making a life that's worthwhile are not the same thing. Living the good life and living a good life are not the same thing. A job title doesn't even come close to answering the question. What do you do?.
Robert Fulghum
Image
Living things have been doing just that for a long, long time. Through every kind of disaster and setback and catastrophe. We are survivors.

Hide-and-seek, grown-up style. Wanting to hide. Needing to be sought. Confused about being found.
