Quotes

Hi bloggers/readers! If you are an avid reader, you have probably picked up some favorite quotes, either from favorite authors or books, or maybe even from just doing a little digging on the internet. This past school year for first semester, my English class had a semester long assignment. The assignment was that each week, we would turn in a response to a quote, and a couple of people each week would read their quotes and responses. This inspired my obsession with quotes.
I have found some of my favorite quotes of all time this year, and I even have a special journal that I want to fill with the most special of quotes. Here are some of my favorites:
"If you're not willing to risk it all, then you don't it want it bad enough."
Unknown
"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
John Lennon
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
Eleanor Roosevelt
"Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone. And do not be troubled about the future, for it has yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering."
Ida Scott Taylor
So there's a good mixture of quotes from a menagerie of people. Quotes sometimes help me with writing, and sometimes, they just make me feel like everything is going to be okay, even when I feel they aren't. I recommend that all of you keep a quote journal to look at every now and then. Not only can quotes be inspirational, but they can be fun to read too!
