"The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination." ― Carl Rogers Topic(s): Good More From Carl Rogers "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." "The very essence of the creative is its novelty, and hence we have no standard by which to judge it." "The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change." More In Good "It seemed the world was divided into good and bad people. The good ones slept better while the bad ones seemed to enjoy the waking hours much more."― Woody Allen "The desire to get married, which – I regret to say, I believe is basic and primal in women – is followed almost immediately by an equally basic and primal urge – which is to be single again."― Nora Ephron "Perhaps one of the only positive pieces of advice that I was ever given was that supplied by an old courtier who observed: Only two rules really count. Never miss an opportunity to relieve yourself; never miss a chance to sit down and rest your feet."― King Edward VIII
