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

A child is a gift , not a burden. Nothing is as beautiful as a rainbow or mud puddle when you are seeing it through a child's eyes! ...Me

Ditto, Kitkat22!

I remember being young and how the senses were all so much more sensitive as well as being in wonderment and awe at the creations of God!

As always, an inspiration!

I've been neglecting you, jrebel7!

I've also lost your phone number...again!

Am house and dog sitting again where I usually do. Phone system is not working here though. Kind of scary for me, because if something happens to one of the dogs or me!

Hopefully, the phone situation will be fixed tomorrow.

Very wise and very true!

"Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you", is something that isn't true! Many times, it's the words that hurt the most!
