1 You are your best thing. -Toni Morrison
Don’t try to be someone you’re not. Learn to accept yourself. No matter what others say, never stop believing in who you are.
2 Make a difference about something other than yourselves. -Toni Morrison
We need to stop being self-centered if we want to bring about a positive change in the world. Start being compassionate towards other people.
3 Somebody has to take responsibility for being a leader. -Toni Morrison
If we want to make the world a better place, we need to instigate change. We should inspire others to take actions.
4 I get angry about things, then go on and work. -Toni Morrison
When we become frustrated, we are not able to focus on important things in life. So, in order to distract ourselves from negativity, we try to concentrate on things we enjoy doing.
5 If there’s a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it. -Toni Morrison
If you have a unique idea in your mind, you must implement it before it’s too late. Your idea might become your life’s best decision.
6 Love is or it ain’t, Thin love ain’t love at all. -Toni Morrison
You need to be true to your loved ones. One can either love someone completely or not at all.
7 Anger … it’s a paralyzing emotion … you can’t get anything done. -Toni Morrison
Anger is such a powerful emotion that it leaves one exhausted. One should be able to regulate their emotions well in order to better focus on important things.
8 All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was. -Toni Morrison
While dealing with difficult situations, we often remember the days when everything was good. We need to remember that despite such challenges, we must push ourselves to get back on track.
9 You are confined by your own repression. -Toni Morrison
As long as you try to repress someone, you will not be able to live freely. You will have to deal with the guilt of mistreating others.
10 When there is pain, there are no words. All pain is the same. -Toni Morrison
The feeling of pain is the same for everyone regardless of the difference in their circumstances. It is not right to compare one’s pain with another’s.
11 If you surrendered to the air, you could ride it. -Toni Morrison
We should be able to make the best out of every situation. Even if you’re in the middle of a very difficult one, you must believe that you can stack the odds in your favour.
12 There is really nothing more to say-except why. But since why is difficult to handle, one must take refuge in how. -Toni Morrison
We must not only try to find out the reason but also the meaning behind things. Since it can be difficult to understand the reason, we should be satisfied in knowing how something happens.
13 My children are delightful people, whom I would love even if they weren’t my children. -Toni Morrison
We should treat others the way we treat our loved ones. Everyone deserves to be loved. We should be kind to strangers as well.
14 As you enter positions of trust and power, dream a little before you think.
Do not just think about being in power for your own interests. Use your power to inspire others and create a positive change in society.
