Stockpile QUOTES

1 " Life is a collection of experiences. Stockpile those wrought with love like the treasures they are. "

― Amy Leigh Mercree , Joyful Living: 101 Ways to Transform Your Spirit and Revitalize Your Life

2 " Fall colors are funny. They’re so bright and intense and beautiful. It’s like nature is trying to fill you up with color, to saturate you so you can stockpile it before winter turns everything muted and dreary. "

― Siobhan Vivian , Same Difference

3 " And she learned that you couldn’t stockpile anything that mattered, really. Feelings, people, songs, sex, fireworks: they existed only in time, and when it was over, so were they. "

4 " I'd laugh, only my stupid lizard brain has disabled the laugh button for now. I'm too frozen up with tension.

I am owed so much laughter. Sometimes I hope I'm building up a stockpile of missing laughs, and when I've recovered, they'll all come exploding out in one gigantic fit that last twenty-four hours. "

― Sophie Kinsella

― Shane Claiborne , Red Letter Revolution: What If Jesus Really Meant What He Said?

6 " Some take pains to be biblical, but many [Christian financial teachers, writers, investment counselors, and seminar leaders] simply parrot their secular colleagues. Other than beginning and ending with prayer, mentioning Christ, and sprinkling in some Bible verses, there's no fundamental difference. They reinforce people's materialist attitudes and lifestyles. They suggest a variety of profitable plans in which people can spend or stockpile the bulk of their resources. In short, to borrow a term from Jesus, some Christian financial experts are helping people to be the most successful 'rich fools' they can be. "

― Randy Alcorn , Money, Possessions and Eternity

7 " Whether or not he was in it, whether or not he could see or touch it, he'd thought there would always be a FIllory out there somewhere. He loved knowing it was there. It anchored his sense of happiness, the way a distant stockpile of gold might underwrite the value of a paper bill. "

― Lev Grossman , The Magician's Land (The Magicians, #3)
