    “If only you could sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.”

  5. I really like Japanese quotations as well. The great thing is that it's really short, but carries so much wisdom.
    Here's one of my favorite Japanese quote: A frog in a well does not know the great sea. Which means: People are satisfied to judge things by their own narrow experience, never knowing of the wide world outside.

    2. I STRONGLY AGREE WITH ALL OF YOU.. THIS ONE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES: NOT SEEING IS A FLOWER; WHICH MEANS THAT REALITY CAN'T COMPETE WITH IMAGINATION.
