What a great contest concept. Oh my what a field of quotes to choose from. This one is one of my all time faves:

"Out beyond Ideas of rightdoing or wrongdoing there is a field. I will meet you there." -Rumi

It speaks to me like the Idea of NVC speaks to me. That when we are in judgement (whether 'good' or 'bad' we are not in connection. It's so important to lose the judgement in order to really meet people where they are. Rumi knew...

When it can be said by any country in the world, my poor are happy, neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them, my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars, the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppressive, the rational world is my friend because I am the friend of happiness. When these things can be said, then may that country boast its constitution and government. Independence is my happiness, the world is my country and my religion is to do good.
--Thomas Paine

I like this quote because it reminds us Americans that we still have a lot of work ahead of us.

Thank you for this entry.

No problem. I really like this contest because it allows you to express yourself with someone else's words.

Here is my entry. I think this is a good quote and rule to live by which would make this world a better place:

“Any fool can criticize, complain, and condemn—and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.”
― Dale Carnegie, How to Win Friends and Influence People

This is a great contest idea I really like it :)

Thank you for this entry.

Great minds don't think alike, great minds think for themselves. - from a Disney kid show

I attribute this to a Disney show I watched growing up. So often you hear people say casually, great minds think alike. But in reality, great minds think for themselves. When has a great mind ever thought like another great mind?
