While slight attention to the soul can go a long way, it isn’t enough to maintain the active life and give the soul mere morsels. Thomas Moore
People are like dirt. They can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die. Plato
You have the need and the right to spend part of your life caring for your soul. It is not easy. You have to resist the demands of the work-oriented, often defensive, element in your psyche that measures life only in terms of output — how much you produce –not in terms of the quality of your life experiences…To be a soulful person means to go against all the pervasive, prove-yourself values of our culture and instead treasure what is unique and internal and valuable in yourself and your own personal evolution. Jean Shinoda Bolen
If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul. Rabbi Harold Kushner
Invent your world. Surround yourself with people, color, sounds, and work that nourish you. Julia Cameron
