Quotes: Gail Bowen

"A Cree elder had told me once that the medicine wheel is a mirror that helps a person see what cannot be seen with the eyes. "Travel the four directions of the circle," she said. "Seek understanding in the four great ways." ... "A seeker must be calm and receptive." 

–– Gail Bowen (b. 1942), Canadian author and playwright

Quotes: José N. Harris

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living." 

–– José N. Harris (b. 1963), American writer and psychologist
