“I never promised you a rose garden. I never promised you perfect justice [...] and I never promised you peace or happiness. My help is so that you can be free to fight for all of those things. The only reality I offer is challenge, and being well is being free to accept it or not at whatever level you are capable. I never promise lies, and the rose garden world of perfection is a lie... and a bore, too!”
― Joanne Greenberg, I Never Promised You a Rose Garden

“You can’t get where you’re going without being where you’ve been.”

“Because I learned long ago that winning doesn’t always mean you get the prize. Sometimes you get progress, and that counts.”

“The Antichrist is already here, in human form. The Antichrist has a name. The name is apathy. It’s a fact that “evil prevails when good men do nothing.” Too many have been doing nothing for far too long, and what could be more “anti-Christ” than to take the position that poverty, hunger, injustice, and abuse of the planet and its inhabitants are none of our business, or that we’re just too busy to do anything about it? Apathy is a luxury we can’t afford any longer, nor do we want”
― Sylvia Browne, End of Days: Predictions and Prophecies About the End of the World
