#114-1. The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind.
-Wayne Dyer
#114-2. The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to him. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
-George Bernard Shaw
#114-3. Hanging onto resentment is letting someone you despise live rent-free in your head.
-Ann Landers
