Strength Quotes - 78 quotes

 It is easy enough to be virtuous, When nothing tempts you to stray, When without or within no voice of sin Is luring your soul away! But it’s only a negative virtue Until it is tried by fire, And the life that is worth honor on earth Is the one that resists desire. By the cynic, the sad, the fallen, Who had no strength for the strife, The world’s highway is cumbered today. They make up the sum of life. But the virtue that conquers passion, And the sorrow that hides in a smile, It is these that are worth the homage on earth For we find them but once in a while.

Choose to be kind over being right, and you’ll be right every time because kindness is a sign of STRENGTH.

 I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which came to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which came to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.

 What's it like to be a woman? A little bird whispered in my ear. Is it just like being human? Oh it is so much more, my dear. We are the holders, we are the keepers, Of the secrets and the truth. We are the safe place in a storm, The creator of all youth. We are the place where life is softest, We are the colour in the story. We are the wisdom and the instinct, Mother Nature in all her glory. We are the taker of all worry, We keep it deep within our hearts So that others may unburden, So that great new lives may start. We are the makers of the home, Not just the walls but of the spirit. Bringing everyone together, Letting love and laughter fill it. We are sisters, mothers, wives, So many things in every day. We are the start of every life, We are the reason, we are the way. We are fueled by intuition, Call it magic, if you like We are women, we are so much more, Than any words that I could write.
