"The ability to quote is a passable substitute for wit." - M. Somerset Maughm
This is so true. Quotes are really just words said by a whole bunch of smart people. But when we read them and say them, we feel as if we have the keys to the universe. Every quote said is true in a way if you think about it. It is another person's perspesctive on the world.
Some quotes are funny (or are trying to be). Others have meaning. Some teach a lesson. But all quotes have been said by someone just like you. Say something with power, make it a quote.
Lighten up your day, heres quotes that are funny-
"A flute with no holes is not a flute. A donut with no hole.. is a danish." -Ty Webb
" Duck tape is like The Force: it has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together." -Anonymous
"The dead batteries were given out free of charge." -Anonymous
"No matter where you go, there you are." -From Buckaroo Banzai
Here are some with deep meaning that will make you think-
"Life is rich and full here... everywhere... if we can only learn how to open our whole hearts to its richness and fullness." -L.M. Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables)
"And yet, she reminded herself, look at all the remarkable things she and Doon have done! It wasn't because they had extraordinary powers, really, but because they used the ordinary powers everyone had; the power of courage, the power of kindness, and the powers of curiosity and knowledge." -Jeanne DuPrau (The Diamond of Darkhold)
"He was a traveler through days and weeks and years of time." -Hillary McKay (Indigo's Star)
Here are some with a lesson-
"There's nothing the matter with his mind. He just does things in his own way and in his own time."- Madeleine L'Engle (A Wrinkle in Time)
"Go outside, to the fields, enjoy nature and the sunshine, go out and try to recapture happiness in yourself and God. Think of all the beauty that's still left in and be happy!" -Anne Frank
"Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
And here is some knowledge from a silly old bear and his friends that I just like-
"Poetry and Hums aren't things in which you get, they're things that get you. And all you can do is to go where they can find you."
"When you first wake up in the morning, Pooh' said Piglet at last, 'What's the first thing you say to yourself?' 'What's for breakfast?' said Pooh. 'What do you say, Piglet?' 'I say, I wonder what's going to happen today?'"
"Christopher Robin came down from the Forest to the bridge, feeling all sunny and careless, and just as if twice nineteen didn't matter a bit, as it didn't on such a happy afternoon, and he thought if he stood at the bottom rail of the bridge, and leant over, and watched the river slipping slowly away beneath him, then he would suddenly know all there was to be known, and he would be able to tell Pooh, who wasn't quite sure about some of it."
I hope you enjoy these tidbits of knowledge!
