Tuesday w/ Morrie

... katatapos koh lang basahin 'ung book nung isang araw... tapos nakita koh na may movie version sa you tube... pinanood koh and as i was watchin' eh tinype koh ang ibang quote na nag-caught nang attention koh... i had some highlighted quotes den sa book pero itoh na lang muna i-share koh...

Morrie: what is it about silence that makes people uneasy? Why do people only feel comfortable when they're filling the air with words? 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morrie: You know dying is only one thing to be sad about. Living unhappily that's another matter. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mitch: Coach, have you ever wish you're young again.

Morrie: .... I've been young. I know how miserable it can be being young. 

Morrie: Aging isn't just a decay you know. it's growth. 

Mitch: So how come nobody ever says... Gee i wish i were old!

Morrie: Because this culture worships youth. Me i do not buy it. I've had my time to be 22. This is my time to be 78. 

Mitch:  So you were never afraid of getting old? 

Morrie: Ahh the fear of aging. You know what that reflects Mitch...  Lives that haven't found meaning. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morrie: Just imagine a little bird on your shoulder and everyday you say.

"Is this the day i'm gonna die little bird? Huh? Am i ready? Am i leading to life i want to lead? Am i the person that i want to be?" If we accept the fact that we can die at anytime, we lead our lives differently. 

So everyday we say. "is this the day?" 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morrie: Work, money, ambition, we burry ourselves with these things. But we never stand back and say is this what i want?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morrie: Attention of opposites. Life pulling you back and forth like a rubber band. Pull you one way you think that's what you wanna do. Pull you another way you think that's what you have to do. 

Mitch: Sounds like a wrestling match. 

Morrie: Well... you could describe life that way

Mitch: So who wins?

Morrie: LOVE.

Love always wins. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morrie: When we are infants we need others to survive... When we're dying we need others to survive... But here's the secret in between we need others even more...
