Arianna Huffington is an author and columnist from Greece. She gained notoriety and fame when she founded The Huffington Post, which is an online news and journalism collection. Here are some of her quotes.
“A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.”
“Angels fly because they take themselves lightly.”
“Countless things in our daily lives can awaken the almost constant state of wonder we knew as children. But sometimes to see them we must look through a different set of eyes.”
“Don’t just climb the ladder of success – a ladder that leads, after all, to higher and higher levels of stress and burnout – but chart a new path to success, remaking it in a way that includes not just the conventional metrics of money and power, but a third metric that includes well being, wisdom, wonder, and giving, so that the goal is not just to succeed but to thrive.”

“Fearlessness is like a muscle. I know from my own life that the more I exercise it the more natural it becomes to not let my fears run me.”
“Fearlessness is not the absence of fear. It’s the mastery of fear. It’s about getting up one more time than we fall down.”
“Give me a place to stand and I will move the world.”
“I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.”
“I think while all mothers deal with feelings of guilt, working mothers are plagued by guilt on steroids.”
“If you take care of your mind, you take care of the world.”
“Increasingly, staying in the middle class – let along aspiring to become middle class – is becoming a game of chance.”
“Just change the channel. You are in control of the clicker. Don’t replay the bad, scary movie.”
“Mainstream media tends to just mouth the conventional wisdom, to see everything through the filter of right and left.”

“Meditation is not about stopping thoughts, but recognizing that we are more than our thoughts and our feelings.”
“Never let life’s Iagos—flatterers, dissemblers—onto your train.”
“The average smartphone user checks his or her device every six and a half minutes.”
“There is nothing like becoming a mom to fill you with fear.”
“Today we often use deadlines—real and imaginary—to imprison ourselves.”
“Too many of us leave our lives—and, in fact, our souls—behind when we go to work.”
“Treat people like family, and they will be loyal and give their all.”
“Trying to be Supermom is as futile as trying to be Perfect Mom. Not going to happen.”

“We all have within us the ability to move from struggle to grace.”
“We forget we’re mostly water till the rain falls and every atom in our body starts to go home.”
“We may not be able to witness our own eulogy, but we’re actually writing it all the time, every day.”
“We think, mistakenly, that success is the result of the amount of time we put in at work, instead of the quality of time we put in.”
“Why do we spend so much of our limited time on this earth focusing on all the things that our eulogies will never cover?”
“You need to be able to nurture yourself in order to be a goo mother, good at your job, good at servicing your community. I really believe women can do it all, but they can’t do it all at the expense of their health, their sleep, and their sense of well being.”
In this interview with Arianna Huffington, she discusses the ideas behind her book “Thrive”.
