Quotes that have influenced your life

Asked Jan 11, 2008, 10:19 AM — 1106 Answers
Hello all! I've been abundantly blessed by my virtual coffee chats with so many of you in this wonderful forum on Books and Literature! (The Relationship forum is fun too, but this is where inspiration comes from... "the stuff dreams are made of" )

Anyways... We all have favorite quotes, quotes that have touched a chord in our hearts and minds, quotes that have influenced our decisions, inspired us to go that extra mile, give us courage to face the day, and shown us what real living is like.

Lets share these divine inspirations with our little world here - on this little posting. I'll start with one of my all-time favorites....

Being a star-gazer myself and being the proud owner of a tempestuous personal history, this is one of my favorites - it reminds me that no matter what is swirling around me at a given time, I can get through it.

"The most tempestuous wind cannot disturb the quiet of the stars."

Literary wishes and Shakespearean dreams,
HistorianChick

If you don't think every day is a great day try going without one.

Ah, ah, ah, Angel.................depends on the woman! Surely my Guardian Angel is not making a blanket statement..........well, I am assuming this it NOT your quote but since no name is with the quote, had to tease you just a bit. I have been absent for awhile. Thought I would jump in here and let you know I'm still kickin'! Princess Rebbie is still riding the Rebel and teasing her Guardian Angel. All is well with the world. Sex is a great way to get rid of a headache....FOR SOME WOMEN.......WHO ARE GREAT AT MULTI-TASKING! LOL I hope I made you smile Angel. : )

Rebbie!

I missed you love. I hope you're well.

Don't be such a stranger. It's not the same without you.

Thank you jrebel7. Nice meeting you.
I've only been here a couple of months so I still mess up a lot.

Nice meeting you also Kitkat22. Don't worry about messing up....you will never meet any better friends than you will here. Everyone helped me so much when I first started they will you also. Everyone is understanding. We have all been new at one time or another. Since I don't have a quote at the moment, will close and wish you well. I have been away but hope to be back more often.
