I love quotes. I'm not sure why except maybe it's because my own words fail me sometimes (or maybe most of the time...whatever.)
Here are a few that I've been thinking of lately.
"It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?" - A.A. Milne
(My mom is especially a fan of this one. What about it? So we love lunch.)
Another A.A. Milne -
"You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes."
And lastly -
"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main..." - John Donne
Another thing I like about quotes is the fact they can mean different things at different times. Maybe they have a tremendous impact on you at one point in your life. At another point, it may lose it's potency. Or someone else may read the quote and understand why you (or I) love it. Another person may shrug their shoulders. A real, good quote is something that could completely change your outlook. Now that's a lot to put into one or two sentences.
I'm always on the hunt for good, new quotes.
