Time to think small!

I'm a little overwhelmed this week, so I've decided for right now, I'm going to think small…

Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So good night, dear void.
-- Kathleen Kelly, in “You’ve Got Mail.”


Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
--Mother Teresa

“What I do you cannot do; but what you do, I cannot do. The needs are great, and none of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.”
-ibid

Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.”
--Dale Carnegie

I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.
--Helen Keller

“Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day.”
--Sally Koch


“Great acts are made up of small deeds.”
--Lao Tzu
