Alaric Quotes

Life would not be the same ever again. I would laugh again like a happy man would, seemingly with few worries in the world, yes, for memories fade, even of a deed like the one I had committed. However, the knowledge was there, sad and lingering, and I knew I had lost something. ~ Alaric Longward

Have no fear. Trust in the vibrational currents of your life. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Quinn," Alaric said quietly. "His aim is to ignite your temper. Perhaps you might allow me the chance to assist you this one time?"

You know how diamonds - how all crystals - grow, Laurette? By adding microscopic layers, a few thousand atoms every month, each atop the next. Millennia after millennia. That's how stories accumulate too. All the old stones accumulate stories. That little rock you're so curious about may have seen Alaric sack Rome; it may have glittered in the eyes of Pharaohs. Scythian queens might have danced all night wearing ~ Anonymous

Fear and paranoia create many of our worldly struggles. We get something in our minds and our distorted perception sculpts the reality of what we see. Even though what we see isn't really there, we tend to act as if it is. We then begin to put people and things into boxes, labeling them, and limiting them due to our fears. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Peace does not demand that everyone like or want the same reality. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

When we ourselves are not truly in a place of peace and we go out and try to create peace in the world, it becomes a fragmented and sometimes even corrupt form of peace. This happens because only peace can create peace, and unless we are the embodiment of it, we are projecting our bias of what peace should look like onto other people's lives. To be at peace means to accept reality as is. Embodying peace is, in fact, the very essence of what it means to be free, as well as offering this freedom to others. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

People can only perceive you through their own vibration, not through your vibration. Your vibration certainly influences theirs, though they are the primary creators of their reality and they perceive an aspect of you into existence that is unique to their reality. Any energy spent worrying about what other people think about you is wasted energy due to all the simultaneous, co-existing realities which you have no control over. What you do have control over are your thoughts and your own vibration. And through this control, you can train your mind to create the most uplifting reality possible. When you do so, the people not in vibrational alignment with your reality will either unconsciously raise their vibration to meet you or simply fall away because they no longer match the vibration necessary to exist in your deliberately created reality. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

All beliefs are equally valid. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Unconditional Love is the outer expression of Inner Peace. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

When engaging in simple everyday banter and communications, this rule of thumb can really help suppress a lot of our negative word 'vomit' since we often mindlessly chat about the things we don't like. If we refrain from expressing our negative opinions about things unless they're directly asked for, we can train ourselves to respond rather than react the second we see or hear something and then feel we must verbalize our views about it.

Remember, even if we don't agree with someone or something, we can still speak about the subject at hand in a positive light to encourage growth rather than guilty motivation. I like to say I express more "inspirations" than "opinions" with each passing day. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

We cannot dim another person's light without first extinguishing our own. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

No person is ever wrong in how they experience their reality. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Find and foster your Passions in life! People who are passionate about what they do are in alignment with Spirit and become magnetic to those around them. This also applies to those already in long-term relationships. How do you keep the love and intimacy alive? Keep your personal Passions alive and the rest will fall into place. We can't share passions with others unless we first have it within ourselves. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

The energy of our thoughts, words, actions, and emotions collectively create the frequency of our vibrational aura. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Our reality is colored by our vibration and belief systems. In other words, the experiences we have in the world with other people are dictated by the energy we bring with us wherever we go. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Accept the past as the past and realize that each new day you are a new person who doesn't need to carry old baggage into the new day with you. It's amazing how many people ruin the beauty of today with the sorrows of yesterday. Yesterday doesn't exist anymore! For example, if ever I feel foolish or guilty about something I've done, I learn from it and attempt to do better the next time. Shame or guilt serves no one. Such feelings actually keep us down, often lowering the vibrations of those around us, as well. Living in the present moment is the recurring baptism of the soul, forever purifying every new day with a new you. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Love starts when peace begins. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Be honest. This applies to every area of your life. Sketchiness is not an attractive trait. No more trying to cover up your baggage, sweeping things under the rug, withholding truth, blatant lying, or even telling seemingly 'harmless' white lies or half-truths – release the need to lie completely! Start NOW. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Mr. Herriton, don't – please, Mr. Herriton – a dentist. His father's a dentist."
Philip gave a cry of personal disgust and pain. He shuddered all over, and edged away from his companion. A dentist! A dentist at Monteriano. A dentist in fairyland! False teeth and laughing gas and the tilting chair at a place which knew the Etruscan League, and the Pax Romana, and Alaric himself, and the Countess Matilda, and the Middle Ages, all fighting and holiness, and the Renaissance, all fighting and beauty! He thought of Lilia no longer. He was anxious for himself: he feared that Romance might die. ~ E.M. Forster

Light and flow is what shifts the world's vibration, not the stagnation and resistance that comes with opposition. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

The present moment is all that ever is, and in each new moment we die and are reborn. For example, people block love and close off their hearts out of fear of being hurt again. If they lived in the present moment, there would be no fear and they would walk forward in life with confidence and certainty that there is the joy of new experiences to be had. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

All that exists is the present moment ~ Alaric Hutchinson

I do not expect Henrique Mauricio to conform to my standards of behavior," Alaric said. "I expect him not to do things that make me want to pound his face into a bloody pulp. Sadly, every time I meet him he fails to live up to this expectation. ~ Meg Cabot

Positive simply means unifying energies, while negative simply means separating energies. It's not about what's good or bad, right or wrong. It's about
embracing what feels good and brings us closer to peace. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Being famous without honor is a thing of no worth. ~ Alaric Longward

Mastery of impulse is achieved through taking pauses during life's contrasting situations.

Mastery of impulse is about responding to the world with a sense of reason and peace. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

She's alive, Alaric. She was wounded, but it was minor," Alexios said, a rough compassion in his voice. A strange weakness raced through Alaric and he had to fight his own lungs to draw breath. Quinn was wounded. "How minor?" he snarled. "Tell me, now. ~ Alyssa Day

You know better than that the only thing about you that scares me is
your absence, Alaric ~ Alyssa Day

I always have hope," Alaric said. "Hope, child, is one of the most important things in life. With hope, we take the next step forward."

Ellen Read, The Treasure ~ Ellen Read

Your call to power is to slow down and reflect within. Gather the peace within yourself before you go out and act among the world. The feel good feeling that lasts is only achieved when you yourself know peace. Nothing is more powerful. This is why you have the highs and lows, the mood swings, the transcendent ecstasy followed by the crash. It is because you have yet to develop a foundation of peace for yourself that acts as an unmovable anchor in your life. Establish this peace in your life and you will experience a whole new reality of the world that flows with you in every way possible, rather than against you. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Peace never hurries. To rush or force is contradictory to the very essence of peace. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Vibration can be shifted through the mastery of thought ~ Alaric Hutchinson

I dislike the word mythology because of its secondary definition meaning "something untrue." Myth is a Greek word that simply means "story," and mythologies are collections of ancient stories explaining the order of the universe or a society's ideals and customs. ~ Alaric Albertsson

People used to travel for fun before the Rising. Can you believe that? - Alaric Kwong ~ Mira Grant

Ignorance is an illusion; we seek understanding. Compassion paves the way towards understanding and understanding paves the way towards acceptance. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Conflict forces us to be fully present because it shatters our ego – stripping away all hope of escape or sugar coating. It removes everything that is nonessential to our authentic being; it removes all superficial layers. Conflict is painful because it wakes us up out of our created illusions. And if we lean into it, conflict can be the catalyst to our enlightenment. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Find something beautiful to focus on daily and allow Inspiration to have its way with you. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Quinn to Alaric
""No way, buddy. Don't touch me until we figure this out. You might electrocute me, which would totally ruin my day. Or, worse, it would send some kind of energy beam through me like when you, um, healed me earlier, and I'm not going to try making love to a glowing light stick just yet."

Day, Alyssa. "Heart Of Atlantis. ~ Alyssa Day

If we aren't willing to change, we aren't willing to unconditionally love. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

It's very possible to live life without disliking anyone. It's all vibration. We can get to the point where 'dislike' does not even register as an option in the default settings of our minds.

Some may wonder, 'What does it matter if I like or dislike people?'

In my perception, it matters greatly since dislike influences our entire energetic body. It becomes part of our vibrational aura, what we're emitting and receiving in return from the world. How we respond to the world is how the world will treat us. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

Do not listen to her," Alaric said. "She is going to tell you in some kind of code only the two of you will understand, because you are siblings, to call the police on your cell phone. But if you do that, I will kill you and dispose of your body in a place where no one will find it. The river, I think. Your doorman is so stupid, he won't notice if I leave this building carrying a body in a rolled-up carpet. ~ Meg Cabot

I prayed to Woden for forgiveness, but I think he felt no ill will for me. We are but men. He has done worse. ~ Alaric Longward

What are the two of you whispering about?" Alaric demanded irritably. She glanced over to see the warrior watching her, his eyes narrow with suspicion. "If I wanted you to know, I'd have spoken louder," she said calmly. He turned away muttering what she was sure were more blasphemies about annoying females. "You must make the priest weary with the length of your confessions," she said. He raised one eyebrow. "Who says I confess anything? ~ Maya Banks

When people of different religions or countries harm people as a means to create peace, it's out of the compulsion to make all colors the same. This is also why people think that war is a logical avenue towards creating peace. People who do not have or know inner peace perpetuate these shards of illusions. Thus, they are projecting their fragmented concepts of peace out onto the world. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

The thicker the hay; the easier mowed. ~ Alaric I

So he was frustrated with her. Most people rolled their eyes when they got frustrated. Alaric made dolphins do ballet. ~ Alyssa Day

Mastering our thoughts can only be achieved after we truly understand what reality is. Thus, it is time to shatter your pre-conceived concept of reality. First, the majority of what you perceive as reality exists only in your mind, and, chances are, you spend most hours of your life in this illusion. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

A 'caring' judgment is still a judgment. And any form of judgment creates blocks and stagnation. ~ Alaric Hutchinson

The sins of my ancestors are not mine,' I said. 'If there were any. And I am nothing like you. ~ Alaric Longward

This resentment you feel toward Father Henrique is another example," Holtzman said. "What did the man ever do to you? Nothing. So he botched that exorcism. It was his first one. He was young. Do you know what I did at my first exorcism?"
"Ran," Alaric said at the same time as his boss.
"Thats exactly right," Holtzman went on. "Its extremely frightening to look into the face of evil for the first time."
"Not," Alaric said, "as frightening as looking into the face of a man who has willing taken a vow of chastity. ~ Meg Cabot

There is never a reason good enough to be out of alignment with peace. ~ Alaric Hutchinson
