“You cannot find peace by avoiding life.”
― Virginia Woolf
Category Archives: AVOIDANCE
Seperti katak di bawah tempurung – Like frog underneath coconut shell.
Meaning: A frog which leaves under a cocunut shell will think that the shell is the world. So, one who is like the frog will have no knowledge of
things/events/places outside his ‘world’. He refuses to venture out into the world-he remains ignorant but is happy with it.http://cogweb.ucla.edu/Discourse/Proverbs/Miscellaneous.html
“He who plants a coconut tree plants food and drink, vessels and clothing, a home for himself and a heritage for his children”
– South Seas saying
You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.”
– Ayn Rand (1905-1982)

- “How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself.”
- Anais Nin (1903-1977)
You cannot find peace by avoiding life.”
You think Yoda stops teaching, just because his student does not want to hear? A teacher Yoda is. Yoda teaches like drunkards drink, like killers kill.
“Welcome to the island of misfit toys”
― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
“Mistakes are like the memories you hide in an attic: old love letters from relationships that tanked, photos of dead relatives, toys from a childhood you miss. Out of sight is out of mind, but somewhere deep inside you know they still exist. And you also know that you’re avoiding them.”
― Jodi Picoult, Lone Wolf
