I think I’ve always been a quotes sort of person and I found these and compiled them into a list.
Some think that using quotes to express yourself is cheating because you’re using someone else’s words to say what you are thinking, but I think that oftentimes, quotes are a way of reaching back to someone wiser than you and allowing their wisdom to flow. I can never remember quotes, but I wanted to get these out there. You don’t have to read them all, there are quite a few, but I think that you might enjoy them, dear readers. And if you have a quote you particularly like, please feel free to share them in the comments. Happy almost-Easter!
