I feel like life is really short, and it's important to enjoy yourself and embrace whatever comes your way, whether it's a challenging day or a great day, just welcome it with open arms. No matter who you are, you can't escape challenges; they are part of life. ~ Miranda Kerr
A Great Day quotes by Miranda Kerr
..:There's a movie being recorded every day where the main character is you. As they say " all eyes on me". Difference is, is ur story, ur life, so, "all eyes on you." You are required to do and give your best at all times. Regardless what life throws at you... For at the end of the day, you'll be the one people are gonna be talking about. Most importantly, you are the one who is to face the Eternal One. The Director. You decide whether you do a great job and influce others with your performance here on earth. You decide if your movie will be seen and talked about for generations to come. Leave a great inspiring movie. Leave behind a great legacy... Have a great day:.. ~ Rafael Garcia

Have a great day. Note: does not apply to my enemies. ~ Demetri Martin
A Great Day quotes by Demetri Martin
Then as he's tucking me into bed, he's supposed to ask, How many stars?
On a great day I'm supposed to say nine or ten. But if it was amazing, the best day I ever had, I'm supposed to cheat and say something like ten thousand stars. ~ Robin Roe
A Great Day quotes by Robin Roe

A Great Day quotes by Craig Ferguson
It's a great day! And if you don't think it's a great day, just try missing one. ~ Zig Ziglar
A Great Day quotes by Zig Ziglar
Erick had underestimated the distance, both to the ground and the cliff above me, yet the texture of the cliff wall was better than I'd hoped for. Vines and plants grew dense and well rooted, and there were many rocks and missing chunks of earth. I didn't know whether I could make it to the top on one leg or not, but I thought it was a great day to try. ~ Jennifer A. Nielsen
A Great Day quotes by Jennifer A. Nielsen
Be a person that others will look for your posts daily because they know you will encourage them. Be the positive one and help others to have a great day and you will find that not only they like you but you will like you too. ~ John Patrick Hickey
A Great Day quotes by John Patrick Hickey
There are millions of people out there who live this way, and their hearts are breaking just like mine. It's okay to say, "My kid is a drug addict or alcoholic, and I still love them and I'm still proud of them." Hold your head up and have a cappuccino. Take a trip. Hang your Christmas lights and hide colored eggs. Cry, laugh, then take a nap. And when we all get to the end of the road, I'm going to write a story that's so happy it's going to make your liver explode. It's going to be a great day. ~ Dina Kucera
A Great Day quotes by Dina Kucera
Everyday is a great day. The only way it is bad is if you make it bad. ~ Blair
A Great Day quotes by Blair
It will be a great day for America, incidentally, when we begin to eat bread again, instead of the blasphemous and tasteless foam rubber that we have substituted for it. ~ James Baldwin
A Great Day quotes by James Baldwin
Did you ever hear one of those corny, positive messages on someone's answering machine? 'Hi, it's a great day and I'm out enjoying it right now. I hope you are too. The thought for the day is share the love. Beep.' 'Uh, yeah, this is the VD clinic ... speaking of being positive, your test is back. Stop sharing the love. ~ Andy Rooney
A Great Day quotes by Andy Rooney
A great day in New York would be to wake up, get a cup of coffee and head up to Central Park for a nice walk. Then I'd go down to the East Village and stroll around. After that, maybe I'd go check out a museum or catch an indie film at the Angelika. ~ Emmanuelle Chriqui
A Great Day quotes by Emmanuelle Chriqui
Make each day a masterpiece. Don't think your best days are out there somewhere. Why not today? Why can't today be a great day? It can if you believe it will. ~ John Wooden

Have a great day, Blake." Livia continued to linger. She hated leaving him here, defenseless.
"I've already had the most amazing day." He glanced at Livia's eyes, and she could see victory in his. She had a feeling that that they had both felt the same intense pull. ~ Debra Anastasia
A Great Day quotes by Debra Anastasia
Do it, and then you will feel motivated to do it. ~ Zig Ziglar
A Great Day quotes by Zig Ziglar
From that night on, the electron-up to that time largely the plaything of the scientist-had clearly entered the field as a potent agent in the supplying of man's commercial and industrial needs ... The electronic amplifier tube now underlies the whole art of communications, and this in turn is at least in part what has made possible its application to a dozen other arts. It was a great day for both science and industry when they became wedded through the development of the electronic amplifier tube. ~ Robert Andrews Millikan
A Great Day quotes by Robert Andrews Millikan
Whatever you think the world is withholding from you, you are withholding from the world. ~ Eckhart Tolle

A Great Day quotes by Jarod Kintz
What a great day for football, all we need is some green grass and a ball. ~ Bill Shankly
A Great Day quotes by Bill Shankly
Sometimes I have a great day of filming and sometimes the theater strikes me better. It just depends. ~ Philip Seymour Hoffman
A Great Day quotes by Philip Seymour Hoffman
It will be a great day in this world when nobody wants anything because everyone has given and there is nothing left to take. ~ Anthony Labson
A Great Day quotes by Anthony Labson
There is no moment like the present. The man who will not execute his resolutions when they are fresh upon him can have no hope from them afterwards: they will be dissipated, lost, and perish in the hurry and scurry of the world, or sunk in the slough of indolence. ~ Maria Edgeworth
A Great Day quotes by Maria Edgeworth
In all jazz, and especially the blues, there is something tart and ironic, authoritative and double-edged. White Americans seem to feel that happy songs are happy and sad songs are sad, and that, God help us, is exactly the way most white Americans sing them - sounding, in both cases, so helplessly, defenselessly fatuous that one dare not speculate on the temperature of the deep freeze from which issue their brave and sexless little voices. Only people who have been "down the line," as the song puts it, know what this music is about…. White Americans do not understand the depths out of which such an ironic tenacity comes, but they suspect that the force is sensual, and they are terrified of sensuality, and do not any longer understand it. The word "sensual" is not intended to bring to mind quivering dusky maidens or priapic black studs. I am referring to something much simpler and much less fanciful. To be sensual, I think, is to respect and rejoice in the force of life, of life itself, and to be present in all that one does, from the effort of loving to the breaking of bread. It will be a great day for America, incidentally, when we begin to eat bread again, instead of the blasphemous and tasteless foam rubber that we have substituted for it. And I am not being frivolous here, either. ~ James Baldwin
A Great Day quotes by James Baldwin
As you enter this place of work please choose to make today a great day. Your colleagues, customers, team members, and you yourself will be thankful. Find ways to play. We can be serious about our work without being serious about ourselves. Stay focused in order to be present when your customers and team mebers most need you. And should you feel your enegery lapsing, try this surefire remedy: Find someone who needs a helping hand, a word of support, or a good ear - and make their day. ~ Stephen C. Lundin
A Great Day quotes by Stephen C. Lundin
I believe that every paper in the country should have one headline that when you read it, you laugh so hard you can't stand it. It has to be that way. What about a headline like this: 'Hippo Eats Dwarf'? How good is that? You read that headline, and you immediately close the paper and say, 'Wow, it's gonna be a great day. ~ Lewis Black
A Great Day quotes by Lewis Black
..:What you feed yourself with, will eventually grow.
Whether be good or bad, it will grow.
It will affect your entire mood, enviroment, and the way of thinking... Most of all, it will affect your entire outcome of your today. (Not to mention your tomorrow)
"You will only get in life what you only put in…" Or not…
Is essential we RENEW OUR MINDS and be very careful with what we feed ourselves with… Have a great day y'all:..
-R.G- ~ Rafael Garcia
A Great Day quotes by Rafael   Garcia
Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success. ~ Henry Ford
A Great Day quotes by Henry Ford
Every day is a great day to give love, spread joy, and SPARKLE! ~ Sheri Fink
A Great Day quotes by Sheri Fink
Today is a great day, not only of healing and reconciliation, but also coming together. I'm so glad the whole Little Rock Nine was alive and here to see this. ~ Winthrop Rockefeller
A Great Day quotes by Winthrop Rockefeller
They never exhale, the trees; on a very windy day, they rustle and inhale, and then the leaves and the branches all tremble as though something means to strangle the life from them. The sky watches on. The world is filled with anticipation, as if to wonder if this day will be a great day, or a horrible day, or the last day. ~ Lauren DeStefano
A Great Day quotes by Lauren DeStefano
Feel the greatness

This is a great day to be alive. This is a great day to be who you are, where you are, and the way you are.

On this day, you can begin by assuming the best. Then you can follow through and do everything in your power to make it happen.

Today there will be all kinds of challenges and frustrations. And today, you can use each one of them as a way to grow stronger, more compassionate, more capable and more accomplished.

This is a day that's too unique and precious to waste. This is a day that's filled with new and exciting possibilities for making a difference.

Though there are certainly things to complain about, there is much more to be thankful for. Focus on the gratitude instead of the shortcomings, and you'll invite today's special flavor of abundance into your life.

This is a great day to be positive, purposeful and filled with enthusiasm for all you can do. Feel all the potential greatness in this day, and get busy bringing it to life in your own special way.

- Ralph Marston ~ Bianca Harrison
A Great Day quotes by Bianca Harrison
In real life, shouldn't a wedding be an awesome party you throw with your great pal, in the presence of a bunch of your other friends? A great day, for sure, but not the beginning and certainly not the end of your friendship with a person you can't wait to talk about gardening with the for the next forty years. ~ Mindy Kaling
A Great Day quotes by Mindy Kaling
There was nothing that can make Gray Preston's motor revving more than a well-running engine, a fast car crossing the finish line in first place, and a hot, willing woman waiting for him at the end of a great day.
- One Sweet Ride ~ Jaci Burton
A Great Day quotes by Jaci Burton
Today's a great day to change a life. Starting with yours. ~ Robin Sharma
A Great Day quotes by Robin Sharma
It's a great day to be alive. I know the sun's still shining when I close my eyes. ~ Travis Tritt
A Great Day quotes by Travis Tritt
In the tough times, don't be surprised if you feel that spirit of heaviness trying to overtake you. Don't be surprised if you hear those thoughts telling you, It will never work. You'll never get well. It's over. It's done. Don't believe those lies. You don't have to be guided by your emotions. They're not in charge. Instead of letting your negative emotions talk to you, talk to yourself.
When you wake up in the morning and that negative thought comes to your mind saying, It's a lousy day, don't just agree and say, "Yeah. It's a lousy day, I feel terrible." Instead, turn it around and talk to yourself. Make a declaration of faith out loud: "This will be a great day. I will get well. God will restore health to me. ~ Joel Osteen
A Great Day quotes by Joel Osteen
A bad day for your ego is a great day for your soul. ~ Jillian Michaels
A Great Day quotes by Jillian Michaels
You, Mr. Bernard,". "Last time I checked they don't pay you to ogle teenage girls. They pay
you to teach. So start teaching."
Mr. Bernard jumps in his chair, clears his throat, and hurriedly goes to the whiteboard and starts writing equations. I salute Jack as I bow out the door.
"Have a great day, Jackoff."
"Try not to get molested, cow," He snaps. ~ Sara Wolf
A Great Day quotes by Sara Wolf
It's a great day for a ball game; let's play two! ~ Ernie Banks
A Great Day quotes by Ernie Banks
Every morning, my dad would have me looking in the mirror and repeat, 'Today is going to be a great day; I can, and I will.' ~ Gina Rodriguez

A Great Day quotes by Barbara Sher

A Great Day quotes by Robert Fulghum
It's always a great day going to work with Ginnifer Goodwin; she's a fantastic actress and I learn so much from her. ~ Josh Dallas
A Great Day quotes by Josh Dallas
If you meet 29th February, think of a distinctive footprint. If you meet 29th February, think of something unique for it is the only day that defines a year as a leap year. It is the only day that makes February truly unique. If you meet 29th February, live and leave a distinctive footprint for you shall seldom meet such a day ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
A Great Day quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
It's a great day to be a mat. ~ Prince Smallls
A Great Day quotes by Prince Smallls
When we were the political slaves of King George, and wanted to be free, we called the maxim that "all men are created equal" a self evident truth; but now when we have grown fat, and have lost all dread of being slaves ourselves, we have become so greedy to be masters that we call the same maxim "a self evident lie" The fourth of July has not quite dwindled away; it is still a great day-for burning fire-crackers!!! ~ Abraham Lincoln
A Great Day quotes by Abraham Lincoln

Events like this mean we can give something back to the people that support us, and hopefully everyone will have a great day and we can put on a good show for them. ~ Nelson Piquet
A Great Day quotes by Nelson Piquet
There were heavy beams - planks of sun - falling randomly, wonderfully, onto the road. Clouds arched their backs to lok behind as they started again to move on. 'It's such a beautiful day,' he said, and his voice was in many pieces. A great day to die. A great day to die, like this. ~ Markus Zusak
A Great Day quotes by Markus Zusak
I get up every morning and it's going to be a great day. You never know when it's going to be over so I refuse to have a bad day. ~ Paul Henderson
A Great Day quotes by Paul Henderson
Most parents send their children off to school with little bromides like "Have a great day! I can't wait to see you later!" or "Do your best at school today. We're having your favorite pizza for dinner tonight!" My mother would send me off with "Enjoy yourself. We could all be dead tomorrow. ~ Melissa Rivers
A Great Day quotes by Melissa Rivers
A near win shifts our view of the landscape. It can turn future goals, which we tend to envision at a distance, into more proximate events. We consider temporal distance as we do spatial distance. (Visualize a great day tomorrow and we see it with granular, practical clarity. But picture what a great day in the future might be like, not tomorrow but fifty years from now, and the image will be hazier.) ~ Sarah Lewis
A Great Day quotes by Sarah Lewis
This is a great day for France! ~ Richard M. Nixon
A Great Day quotes by Richard M. Nixon
Àlways remember to make it a great day. ~ Char
A Great Day quotes by Char
I think anytime you can do something you haven't seen or done in a film before, it's always a great day as an actor. ~ Matt Dillon
A Great Day quotes by Matt Dillon
Don't expect a great day; create one. ~ Bob Proctor
A Great Day quotes by Bob Proctor
In the Shakespearean comedies, the wedding is the end, and there isn't much indication of what happily ever after will look like day to day. In real life, shouldn't a wedding be an awesome party you throw with your great pal, in the presence of a bunch of your other friends? A great day, for sure, but not the beginning and certainly not the end of your friendship with a person you can't wait to talk about gardening with for the next forty years. ~ Mindy Kaling
A Great Day quotes by Mindy Kaling
This morning I awoke and was reminded of the preciousness of life. I realized I should express my gratitude to those who are so very important to me. Thank you for all you have done and have a great day! ~ Swapna Rajput
A Great Day quotes by Swapna Rajput
Wake up every morning with dreams of a wonderful day. ~ Debasish Mridha
A Great Day quotes by Debasish Mridha
Thanks," I said, "have a great day." And I turned to leave. Damn! I am such a coward. Next time I'll get her number, I told myself, even though I said the exact same thing sixty-some dollars ago. I needed a plan. I needed an event to take her to. What did I think I was going to do, ask her out to coffee? ~ Jarod Kintz
A Great Day quotes by Jarod Kintz
Max," she said. He turned and briefly closed his eyes as the girl continued.
There was once a strange, small man,"she said. Her arms were loose but her hands were fists at her side. "But there was a word shaker,too."

One of the Jews on his way to Dachau had stopped walking now. He stood absolutely still as the others swerved morosely around him, leaving him completely alone. His eyes staggered, and it was so simple. The words were given across from the girl to the Jew. They climbed on to him.

The next time she spoke, the questions stumbled from her mouth. Hot tears fought for room in her eyes as she would not let them out. Better to stand resolute and proud. Let the words do all of it. "Is it really you? the young man asked," she said. " Is it from your cheek that I took the seed.?"
Max Vandenburg remained standing.
He did not drop to his knees.
People and Jews and clouds all stopped. They watched.
As he stood, Max looked first at the girl and then stared directly into the sky who was wide and blue and magnificent. There were heavy beams-- planks of son-- falling randomly, wonderfully to the road. Clouds arched their backs to look behind as they started again to move on. "It's such a beautiful day," he said, and his voice was in many pieces. A great day to die. A great day to die,like this.
Liesel walked at him. She was courageous enought to reach out and hold his bearded face. "Is it really you,Max?"
Such a brilliant ~ Markus Zusak
A Great Day quotes by Markus Zusak
Beginning of a great day begins a night before. ~ Sukant Ratnakar
A Great Day quotes by Sukant Ratnakar
It's a great day in America when white people, black people and Latinos can all come together and pick on another minority. ~ George Lopez

It is a great day for the great state of Texas. The last person being tested for Ebola has come back clean. So Texas is now Ebola free. This was a big week for them. They're now free of Ebola - and Democrats. ~ Craig Ferguson
A Great Day quotes by Craig Ferguson
Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it ... Success is shy - it won't come out while you're watching. ~ Tennessee Williams

If you don't think every day is a great day try going without one. ~ Jim Evans
A Great Day quotes by Jim Evans
People fear change, Change is not knowing what's going to happen. People sometimes mistake change as a negative. I look at change as exciting, look at it as an opportunity to make your life better. Fear builds mountains, Faith removes them. It's time for you to conquer new horizons. Today is going to be a GREAT day for a change! ~ Marc Mero
A Great Day quotes by Marc Mero
It's a great day to write a best-seller. ~ Buffy Andrews
A Great Day quotes by Buffy Andrews
The bells will ring and the marriages will begin. And it's a great day in our state for equal protection under the law for all people. ~ Kamala Harris
A Great Day quotes by Kamala Harris
I like very masculine smells. I like wood scents on men. I just like a man to smell great, but I don't like very strong cologne. I don't like when a man is overpowered by cologne. I think subtle and sexy is always best. ~ Jessica White
A Great Day quotes by Jessica White
One of the great things about a celebrity pro-am is that you get to play along with the very best professional golfers in the world. ~ Cheech Marin
A Great Day quotes by Cheech Marin
Everyone would like to be on Broadway, cause if a show works, you make a great deal of money and it allows you to write other shows. ~ Stephen Sondheim
A Great Day quotes by Stephen Sondheim
A young woman stepped in front of the dais and cleared her throat. She had reddish-brown hair that hung in loose waves down her back. Her figure was slender and regal, and Ian could have easily drowned in her emerald eyes. But what captured his attention the most was the way the lass carried herself - confident, yet seemingly unaware of her true beauty.
She wore a black gown with hanging sleeves, and the embroidered petticoat under her skirts was lined in gray. With the added reticella lace collar and cuffs dyed with yellow starch, she looked as though she should have been at the English court rather than in the Scottish Highlands.
"Pardon me, Ruairi. Ravenna wanted me to tell you that we're taking little Mary to the beach. We won't be long. We'll be in the garden until the mounts are readied, if you need us."
When the woman's eyes met Ian's, something clicked in his mind. His face burned as he remembered. He shifted in the seat and pulled his tunic away from his chest. Why was the room suddenly hot? He felt like he was suffocating in the middle of the Sutherland great hall.
God help him.
This was the same young chit who had pined after him, following him around the castle and nipping at his heels like Angus, Ruairi's black wolf. But like everything else that had transformed around here, so had she. She was no longer a girl but had become an enchantress - still young, but beautiful nevertheless. His musings were interrupted by a male voice.
"Munr ~ Victoria Roberts
A Great Day quotes by Victoria  Roberts
I developed the concept of the Happy Warrior as a rallying cry for those of us who want to restore America to its great foundational principles: individual freedom, personal responsibility, fiscal restraint, and economic liberty. ~ Monica Crowley
A Great Day quotes by Monica Crowley
My experience indicates that most people who've accumulated a great deal of wealth haven't had that as their goal at all. Wealth is only a by-product, not the original motivation. ~ Michael Milken
A Great Day quotes by Michael Milken
In trying to teach children a great deal in a short time, they are treated not as though the race they were to run was for life, but simply a three-mile heat. ~ Horace Mann
A Great Day quotes by Horace Mann
I'd love to say I'm an accomplished cook, but I don't have any signature dishes. I'm good at breakfast
I make great eggs. My father gave me a little recipe. It's all in the seasoning. But it's a Greek secret. I won't give it away! ~ Jennifer Aniston
A Great Day quotes by Jennifer Aniston
The average person wastes his life. He has a great deal of energy but he wastes it. The life of an average person seems at the end utterly meaningless…without significance. When he looks back…what has he done?


MIND

The mind creates routine for its own safety and convenience. Tradition becomes our security. But when the mind is secure it is in decay. We all want to be famous people…and the moment we want to be something…we are no longer free.

Intelligence is the capacity to perceive the essential…the what is. It is only when the mind is free from the old that it meets everything new…and in that there's joy. To awaken this capacity in oneself and in others is real education.

SOCIETY

It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. Nature is busy creating absolutely unique individuals…whereas culture has invented a single mold to which we must conform. A consistent thinker is a thoughtless person because he conforms to a pattern. He repeats phrases and thinks in a groove. What happens to your heart and your mind when you are merely imitative, naturally they wither, do they not?

The great enemy of mankind is superstition and belief which is the same thing. When you separate yourself by belief tradition by nationally it breeds violence. Despots are only the spokesmen for the attitude of domination and craving for power which is in the heart of almost everyone. Until the source is ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
A Great Day quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
I lived at the Gramercy Park Hotel for about 10 years. It was terrific. It was a pleasantly run-down hotel of the '70s and '80s with a mix of older, rent-controlled apartment dwellers, Europeans and new wave and punk bands. The room service was great, the hamburger was terrific, and they had a doctor who made house calls. ~ Paul Shaffer
A Great Day quotes by Paul Shaffer
And the ladies dressed in red for my pain and with my pain latched onto my breath, clinging like the fetuses of scorpions in the deepest crook of my neck, the mothers in red who sucked out the last bit of heat that my barely beating heart could give me - I always had to learn on my own the steps you take to drink and eat and breathe, I was never taught to cry and now will never learn to do this, least of all from the great ladies latched onto the lining of my breath with reddish spit and floating veils of blood, my blood, mine alone, which I drew myself and which they drink from now after murdering the king whose body is listing in the river and who moves his eyes and smiles, though he's dead and when you're dead, you're dead, for all the smiling you do, and the great ladies, the tragic ladies in red have murdered the one who is floating down the river and I stay behind like a hostage in their eternal custody.

I want to die to the letter of the law of the commonplace, where we are assured that dying is the same as dreaming. The light, the forbidden wine, the vertigo. Who is it you write for? The ruins of an abandoned temple. If only celebration were possible. A mournful vision, splintered, of a garden of broken statues.

Numb time, time like a glove upon a drum. The three who compete in me remain on a shifting point and we neither are nor is. My eyes used to find rest in humiliated, forsaken things. Nowadays I see with them; I've seen and approved of no ~ Alejandra Pizarnik
A Great Day quotes by Alejandra Pizarnik
The form of government which you admire, when its principles are pure is admirable indeed. It is productive of every Thing which is great and excellent among men. But its principles are as easily destroyed as human nature is corrupted. Such a government is only to be supported by pure religion or Austere morals. ~ John Adams
A Great Day quotes by John Adams
•He looked like a man cut away from the stake, when the fire has overrunningly wasted all the limbs without consuming them, or taking away one particle from their compacted aged robustness... Threading its way out from among his grey hairs, and continuing right down one side of his tawny scorched face and neck, till it disappeared in his clothing, you saw a slender rod-like mark, lividly whitish. It resembled that perpendicular seam sometimes made in the straight, lofty trunk of a great tree, when the upper lightning tearingly darts down it, and without wrenching a single twig, peels and grooves out the bark from top to bottom ere running off into the soil, leaving the tree still greenly alive, but branded. ~ Herman Melville
A Great Day quotes by Herman Melville
