Quotes about meaning
meaningful children growing-up
I grew up feeling that to be gay was a tragedy.

It seemed that this condition would leave me with a vastly reduced life. Andrew Solomon

That is meaningful to me. Abraham Verghese

meaningful children believe
I remember that one time Carl Sagan was giving a talk, and he spelled out, in a kind of withering succession, these great theories of demotion that science has dealt us, all of the ways in which science is telling us we are not who we would like to believe we are. At the end of it, a young man came up to him and he said: "What do you give us in return? Now that you've taken everything from us? What meaning is left, if everything that I've been taught since I was a child turns out to be untrue?" Carl looked at him and said, Do something meaningful. Ann Druyan

meaningful personality vantage-point
I found that looking at the Israeli/Palestinian conflict from an outside vantage point was actually quite distancing.

What changed that, for me, was changing the vantage point. Jason Alexander
meaningful wedding real
I think a lot of people get so obsessed with the wedding and the expense of the wedding that they miss out on what the real purpose is.

meaningful love-is attachment
One of the most important of life´s lessons is to learn independance, to understand freedom. This means independence from attachments, from results, from opinions, and from expectations.

It means ending dependency on any person or thing. Love is never a dependency. Brian Weiss

meaningful religious book
We no longer just take religious identity from our parents, so what's going on? Why are people going to this series, why are people reading so many books about religion? It's because they want answers. The answers are no longer just passed down from generation to generation. It's harder for people. In effect, you have to roll up your sleeve and ask the questions. But if you do it, if you forge your own identity, it can be much more personal and much more meaningful to you. Bruce Feiler
meaningful focus-and-concentration challenges
