I just felt like posting some of my favorite quotations. I just found them again on my desktop. I had forgotten about some of the ones in here. Hope you enjoy them.

"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself."-Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

"The path to our destination is not always a straight one. We go down the wrong road, we get lost, we turn back. Maybe it doesn't matter which road we embark on. Maybe what matters is that we embark."
-Barbara Hall, Northern Exposure, Rosebud, 1993

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is a daring adventure or nothing at all."-Helen Keller

"Education is a social process. Education is growth. Education is, not a preparation for life; education is life itself." -John Dewey

"There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness." -Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900), "On Reading and Writing"

"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power."
