Robert Fulghum Quotes

About winning and losing: It isn’t important, what really counts is how you play the game. About playing the game: PLAY TO WIN! Picture Quote #1

Doing a straight-forward, clear-cut task that has a beginning and an end balances out the complexity-without-end that often vexes the rest of my life. Sacred simplicity Picture Quote #1

The point is that getting married for lust or money or social status or even love is usually trouble. The point is that marriage is a maze into which we wander - a maze that is best got through with a great companion Picture Quote #1

Arguing whether or not a God exists is like fleas arguing whether or not the dog exists. Arguing over the correct name for God is like fleas arguing over the name of the dog. And arguing over whose notion of God is correct is like fleas arguing over who owns the dog Picture Quote #1

Only an open mind still has room for new knowledge. What is outgrown and used up must be discarded to make room for what is yet to be learned. And much of the best thinking is done alone-in deserts, on beaches, in bed, behind closed doors. It is why we say we need to get away-to escape from clutter and busyness-to hear ourselves think Picture Quote #1

The name is not important anymore - it’s the tone that counts. I feel like an old dog I know. He will come to any name you call him, just so long as your demeanor carries with it the promise of affection and food Picture Quote #1

This is an exercise in power - the power of mind over matter. If you don’t mind being inadequate, it doesn’t matter Picture Quote #1

My own movement of thought is not meant to be a straight point-to-point, linear line of march, but horizontal exploration from one area of interest to another. There is no ultimate destination - no finish line to cross, no final conclusion to be reached. It’s the way I feel about dancing - you move around a lot, not to get somewhere, but to be somewhere in time Picture Quote #1

Water is everywhere and in all living things; we cannot be seperated from water. No water, no life. Period. Water comes in many forms - liquid, vapor, ice, snow, fog, rain, hail. But no matter the form, it’s still water Picture Quote #1

All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sand pile at Sunday School Picture Quote #1

It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need, and our air force has to have a bake-sale to buy a bomber Picture Quote #1

My goal now is to dance all the dances as long as I can, and then to sit down contented after the last elegant tango some sweet night and pass on because there wasn’t another dance left in me Picture Quote #1

The myth of the impossible dream is more powerful than all the facts of history Picture Quote #1

You are free to give life meaning, whatever meaning you want to give it Picture Quote #1

Share everything. Don’t take things that aren’t yours. Put things back where you found them Picture Quote #1

Manuals have their uses ... but they are not to be confused with living Picture Quote #1

Play fair. Don’t hit people. Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody Picture Quote #1

Sirius, the brightest star in the heavens.... My grandfather would say we’re part of something incredibly wonderful - more marvelous than we imagine. My grandfather would say we ought to go out and look at it once in a while so we don’t lose our place in it Picture Quote #1

There is nothing in your budget for joy. No books, no flowers, no music, not even a cold beer. And there is nothing in your budget to give away to someone else. We don’t help people who don’t have better values than you do Picture Quote #1

One of life’s best coping mechanisms is to know the difference between an inconvenience and a problem Picture Quote #1
