“Some don鈥檛 want to be happy, inasmuch as they undergo happiness merely as languor and yawning. They are dissatisfied with a bland and vacuous state of glee and, instead, prefer to keep on running like raging bulls through the whims and quirks of life. In reality, their dissatisfaction is their contentment. ("Happiness blowing in the wind" )”
Erik Pevernagie

“Memory may be pig-headed and want us to follow its whims along the blips and dips of our time line. ( "All the words he always wanted to tell her.")”

“While our liberty is steering us through the whims of our desires and the ups and downs of our expectations, we must make sure that the pieces of the puzzle of our destination fit into the mystery structures of the others. When we use our awareness and freedom of choice, we learn to avoid pitfalls or hopeless flops.”
Erik Pevernagie

Michael Ben Zehabe
“The Shulamite lives by a different set of values. One of the most horrible frauds perpetrated on western couples is 'trust your feelings' or 'follow your heart.' Solomon's family must never be left to whims. A wise Shulamite does not make life decisions based on feelings, alone. She takes God's point-of-view: 'He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool; But whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.' --Pr 28:26
For young couples, a hard lesson to learn is: Their hearts will lie to them.
pg 3”
Michael Ben Zehabe, Song of Songs: The Book for Daughters

James C. Dobson
“Failure to put the relationship on a slower timetable may result in an act that was never intended in the first place. Another important principle is to avoid the circumstances where compromise is likely. A girl who wants to preserve her virginity should not find herself in a house or dorm room alone with someone to whom she is attracted. Nor should she single-date with someone she has reason not to trust. A guy who wants to be moral should stay away from the girl he knows would go to bed with him. Remember the words of Solomon to his son, 鈥淜eep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house鈥� (Proverbs 5:8). I know this advice sounds very narrow in a day when virginity is mocked and chastity is considered old-fashioned. But I don鈥檛 apologize for it. The Scriptures are eternal, and God鈥檚 standards of right and wrong do not change with the whims of culture. He will honor and help those who are trying to follow His commandments. In fact, the apostle Paul said, 鈥淗e will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear鈥� (1Corinthians 10:13). Hold that promise and continue to use your head. You鈥檒l be glad you did.”
James C. Dobson, Life on the Edge: The Next Generation's Guide to a Meaningful Future

Saidi Mdala
“Your whim wants you to speak when you must be paying attention and go mum when called to give a speech. Your whim whispers 鈥榮leep,鈥� when you should be burning the midnight oil and urges you to go and dance the night away when you should be recharging your batteries for school the next day. It says bum when you should be busting your bum.”
Saidi Mdala, Know What Matters
