Re: Favorite Quotes
i LOVE quotes,sorry for the mass amount but I could not pick a favorite
Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”
"The highest result of education is tolerance"- Helen Keller
" For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin -- real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. Happiness is a journey, not a destination."
-- -- Father Alfred D'Souza
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent- Eleanor Roosevelt
"Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.”
-- Carrie Bradshaw
“Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go. But it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if you're very lucky, a plane ride away” -- Carrie Bradshaw
"Well behaved women rarely make history"
"We must be the change we wish to see in the world"-Ghandi
"Stay far from timid, only make moves when your hearts in it,and live the phrase sky's the limit"-BIG
"Some say holding on makes you strong, sometimes it's letting go"
“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”- Herman Caine
“If you want your children to improve, let them overhear the nice things you say about them to others.”
Dr. Haim Ginott
“The average pencil is seven inches long, with just a half-inch eraser - in case you thought optimism was dead.”
Robert Brault
“Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people”
Eleanor Roosevelt
“Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb. It isn't something you get. It's something you do. It's the way you love your partner every day.”
Barbara De Angelis
"When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time"- Maya Angelou

Re: Favorite Quotes
It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live that our death brings no pleasure on the world.
