These are a few quotes I put together ending with a couple of my own.

"A word to the wise ain't necessary; it's the stupid ones who need the advice." Bill Cosby

I like this quote by Bill Cosby it tells it like it is.

"It isn't where you come from; it's where you're going that counts." Ella Fitzgerald

This quote holds many truths

"A child educated only at school is an uneducated child." George Santayana

What we learn in life is far more important than what we learn in school

"I have had dreams and I have had nightmares, but I have conquered my nightmares because of my dreams."
Jonas Salk

To dare to dream we triumph over our fears

"I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity." Albert Einstein

Growing up and maturing has a great and pleasing effect on us.

"The more I think it over, the more I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people." Vincent van Gogh

As Jesus put it, "Love your neighbor as yourself"

"Home is the place where boys and girls first learn how to limit their wishes, abide by rules, and consider the rights and needs of others." Sidonie Gruenberg

Our upbringing can be where it all begins

"Keep your fears to yourself, but share your inspiration with others." Robert Louis Stevenson

No one wants to hear about your fears only your inspirations

"All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them." Galileo Galilei

Yes, when confronted with the truth we naturally understand it.

"Some people explore the world to seek riches and treasures when the greatest treasure of all burns in their hearts" David Tanguay

This is one of my own quotes

"Do not ask me if I believe in God, however you do need to ask God if he believes in you." David Tanguay

Another one of my own quotes

These are all very inspiring for me, David - except for R.L. Stevenson's. I'm okay with listening to people's fears, and I'm glad that I have some people to whom I can tell mine...

Great stuff Mr Tanguay. The beauty of truth is that it is an ever evolving creature. The truth can not be read in a book, but in many books. The truth can not be found in your mind, or heart, but in many minds, and many hearts. The truth can not even be found on this planet, but on many planets. The truth is ?

hi david,
 
thanks for the quotes-i've always been fascinated by quotes.
quick little tidbits that make me think.
 
i enjoyed these.
 
one that helped turn my life around at a point it needed turning, was by maya angelou: "We do what we know how to do, and when we know better, we do better."
 
i was regretting the past at the time, and this helped put a dream back into my step.
 
my best,
 
sue
