    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
    “It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.”
    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

  • #2
    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
    “You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose.”
    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

    David Foster Wallace, This Is Water: Some Thoughts, Delivered on a Significant Occasion, about Living a Compassionate Life

    John Muir

  • #6
    Jim  Butcher
    “There is a primal reassurance in being touched, in knowing that someone else, someone close to you, wants to be touching you. There is a bone-deep security that goes with the brush of a human hand, a silent, reflex-level affirmation that someone is near, that someone cares.”
    Jim Butcher, White Night

  • #7
    Leo F. Buscaglia
    “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a

    of which have the potential to turn a life around.”
    Leo F. Buscaglia

  • #8
    Chief Seattle
    “My people are few. They resemble the scattering trees of a storm-swept plain...There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a wind-ruffled sea cover its shell-paved floor, but that time long since passed away with the greatness of tribes that are now but a mournful memory.”
    Chief Seattle, Chief Seattle's Speech (1854)

    Cassandra Clare
    “there is a fine line between sarcasm and hostility, you seemed to have crossed it. What's up?”
    Cassandra Clare

    Steve Maraboli
    “This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!”
    Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

  • #11
    The closest thing to being cared for is to care for someone else.
    “The closest thing to being cared for is to care for someone else.”
    Carson McCullers, The Square Root of Wonderful

  • #12
    Steve Maraboli
    “It’s time to care; it’s time to take responsibility; it’s time to lead; it’s time for a change; it’s time to be true to our greatest self; it’s time to stop blaming others.”
    Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

  • #13
    Terry Goodkind
    “...you'll find that being a friend is to like a person for who they are, even the parts you don't understand. You don't have to understand, or do the same, or live their lives for them. If you truly care for them, then you want them to be who they are; that was why you liked them in the first place.”
    Terry Goodkind

  • #14
    Rick Riordan
    “Everybody -even monsters- needed a little attention once in a while.”
    Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief

  • #15
    Carla Jo Masterson
    “Love does not cost anything. Kind words and deeds do not cost anything. The real beauty of the world is equal for everyone to see. It was given by God equally to all, without restrictions.

    Everyone, was given a beautiful vehicle in which to express love to others. Feelings are free to express and give to ourselves and each other through our willingness to give and care.

    What is complicated about this... Why have we made others feel they have to climb mountains and swim oceans in order to make a difference.

    All we need to understand my friends, is that human life was given equally to us all, not partially but in totality.

    The sun was given to all. It does not shine on the few. So, just has nature is indifferent to our station or situation, we need to know that we are all equal. We need to focus on the things that are constant and not place our values on things that can be blown away with the next, great, wind.

    Value life in what ever house it dwells. For when it comes time that we are all stripped to bare bones before the divine and facing eternity, we will understand that the only law we were meant to follow, was to love ourselves and each other. Nothing more...nothing less.”
    Carla Jo Masterson

    Pandora Poikilos
    “We are so accustomed to the comforts of "I cannot", "I do not want to" and "it is too difficult" that we forget to realize when we stop doing things for ourselves and expect others to dance around us, we are not achieving greatness. We have made ourselves weak.”
    Pandora Poikilos, Excuse Me, My Brains Have Stepped Out

  • #18
    Fuyumi Soryo
    “There's always someone who cares. Someone whose life would simply stop. You just don't know it yet, or you haven't found them yet.”
    Fuyumi Soryo (惣領 冬実)

  • #19
    Ai Yazawa
    “I don't think avoiding conflict is not caring.

    ~Shin”
    Ai Yazawa, Nana, Vol. 12

  • #20
    “Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible.”
    Ronnie Oldham

  • #21
    Vera Nazarian
    “The master of the garden is the one who waters it, trims the branches, plants the seeds, and pulls the weeds. If you merely stroll through the garden, you are but an acolyte.”
    Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration

  • #22
    Theodore Roosevelt
    “The credit belongs to those who are actually in the arena, who strive valiantly; who know the great enthusiasums, the great devotions, and spend themselves in a worthy cause; who at best know the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if they fail, fail while daring greatly, so that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
    Theodore Roosevelt

  • #23
    Criss Jami
    “What is hard work? It takes strength, energy, and stress to truly care about others enough to place oneself last, but it is easy to wrap oneself up and selfishly scramble on the heads of others.”
    Criss Jami, Killosophy

  • #24
    E.A. Bucchianeri
    “An acquaintance merely enjoys your company, a fair-weather companion flatters when all is well, a true friend has your best interests at heart and the pluck to tell you what you need to hear.”
    E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly

  • #25
    Helen Dunmore
    “For you where never my blood sister so no more shall I call you little sister”
    Helen Dunmore, The Crossing of Ingo

  • #26
    Rachel Kadish
    “The Grocery Checkout Proviso: The more things you care about, the more vulnerable you are. If you are part of that epicurean minority in this country that is still offended by violations of the English language, you will be slapped in the face every time you stand in line at the market. FIFTEEN ITEMS OR LESS. Caring passionately about grammar—caring passionately about anything most of humanity doesn’t care about—is like poking a giant hole in your life and letting the wind blow everything around.”
    Rachel Kadish, Tolstoy Lied: A Sharp Literary Romance – Finding Love That Fulfills Head and Heart

  • #27
    Cherise Sinclair
    “I wouldn't do this if i didn't care, but you mean everything to me, and if this is what you need, then this is what you'll get. But we're damned well going to work on changing this association between caring and spanking.”
    Cherise Sinclair, The Dom's Dungeon

  • #28
    Tamora Pierce
    “Once she was certain, she didn't waiver. I had to make her stop for water or a bite to eat. She obeyed, but she was restless. As clear as if she spoke to me, she was saying, "Very well, I know you want to keep my strength up, but scent fades, you know!"
    And I'd say, "I know, girl, but you're what I have and I'm going to take care of you.”
    Tamora Pierce, Bloodhound

  • #29
    Dieter F. Uchtdorf
    “Though we are incomplete, God loves us completely. Though we are imperfect, He loves us perfectly. Though we may feel lost and without compass, God's love encompasses us completely. ... He loves every one of us, even those who are flawed, rejected, awkward, sorrowful, or broken.”
    Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  • #30
    Shannon L. Alder
    “There will always be someone willing to hurt you, put you down, gossip about you, belittle your accomplishments and judge your soul. It is a fact that we all must face. However, if you realize that God is a best friend that stands beside you when others cast stones you will never be afraid, never feel worthless and never feel alone.”
    Shannon Alder

  • #31
    Shannon L. Alder
    “You are not what others think you are. You are what God knows you are.”
    Shannon Alder
