There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we are open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life. John Lennon

I believe in talent. I know you're not supposed to believe in that anymore because you're supposed to believe if you just work hard you can do anything. That's how you succeed, maybe. But talent is something you're born with. You cannot acquire it by working hard, and you cannot lose it by lying around either. Fran Lebovitz

The copper came to the door to tell us about the accident. It was just like it's supposed to be, the way it is in the films. Asking if I was her son an' all that. Then he told us, and we both went white. It was the worst thing that ever happened to me. I thought, I've no responsibilities to anyone now.  (John Lennon)

  From time to time, wrongly attributed to John  - this aphorism from Yoko first appeared in Grapefruit - her wonderful book of aphorisms, poems, instructions and what have you; she later used the quote in her song Now Or Never from the superb Apple Records album - Approximately Infinite Universe .
