Quotes

"The wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages may be preserved by quotations."
- Benjamin Disraeli

  

Quotes. Most people read a good quote and respond that they liked it. What do you do with a great quote after you read it? Do you forget about eventually? Or do you write it down and commit it to memory?

   The reason I love quotes is because the most intelligent, creative, determined people have left us these gems of wisdom to use. I think of it as is they are speaking to me. Giving me advice on what to do and how to live my life. I treasure great quotes and share them with as many people as I can.
  
 I also meditate on them I want the quote to sink into my heart and mind so it helps me along the way. I love it when I am going through a trial and the perfect quote pops into my head. Then I have the gem of wisdom to hold onto. This also helps is I may not be going in the right direction. Oftentimes a quote will help me get back on track and go the right way.

   Take the time to read these quotes. Print them out and really truly think about them and find out how they can help you in life. These are some of the most impactful quotes I have used over the years.
