React Quotes - page 13

From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life. (Anaïs Nin)

Bernard Le Bovier de Fontenelle
At some point, on our way to a new consciousness, we will have to leave the opposite bank, the split between the two mortal combatants somehow healed so that we are on both shores at once and, at once, see through serpent and eagle eyes. Or perhaps we will decide to disengage from the dominant culture, write it off all together as a lost cause, and cross the border into a wholly new and separate territory. Or we might go another route. The possibilities are numerous once we decide to act and not react. View quote
Gloria E. Anzaldúa

Roger: It's totally cool you know. We go out there and put our best foot forward and we play songs we've played before, and that feels like we know what's going to happen. The crowd is going to react to it or they're not going to react to it. If we went out there and played all new songs it would be lame. View quote
Roger Manganelli
