i love quotes too because they help inspire and motivate me!!!

" I sell propane and propane accessories." -Hank Hill, King of the Hill

 

I just find it funny for some apparent reason.

 

"You are never as good as you think you are, you are never as bad as you think you are, and you're never far from both of these"

I feel as though people need something or someone to tell them they're great(even if they may not be) because it keeps them going and many times we are our own harshest critics, seeing things that aren't as obvious to others. This quote keeps someone balanced; away from ****iness and safe in humility.

"More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost...." -Charlie Chaplin (The Great Dictator's Speech)

"Something about skating in the middle of empty streets just feels right"

Logan Wells 3/10/14

The story of life, is faster than the blink of an eye. The story of love, is hello and goodbye. Until we meet again. -Jimmy Hendrix Suicide Note
Be happy never satisfied -Bruce Lee
Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing now -1 Thessalonians 5:11
I have a lot but I can't remember that many right now

Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life -Terry Pratchett

 And I did it, my way. -Frank Sinatra

"You got to want to be successful so bad, you forget to eat"

"Sleep is for those people who are broke. I don't sleep; I have an opportunity to make a dream a reality." -50Cent

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybodys job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldnt do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have -Anonymous
I would rather hire a lazy person rather than someone who works hard. This is because a lazy person will find a quicker way to do something.- Bill Gates

"Please my son, stay away from the bad things." -John Q

"In 7 days, God created the universe. And in 7 seconds, I shattered mine" -7 Pounds
I have a lot more but i can't get the exact wording

LOVE this post!!!! Especially as I am a quote fanatic! :)

 

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." (Gandhi) is my absolute fave, I think, though I'm also quite partial to "May you live all the days of your life" (Jonathan Swift) and "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." (Margaret Mead).

And I love everything Ron Swanson says on Parks&Rec :) "Dear frozen yogurt, you are the celery of desserts. Be ice cream or be nothing."    

Chris Traeger: Have you ever had a turkeyburger? 

Ron Swanson: Is that a fried turkey leg wrapped inside a burger? Because if so, then yes. Delicious.

"you cant spell love, you feel it"

"There is always a chance of success, and if there isn't any, I'll just have to make one." -some random guy i met at a party.

      I absolutely love Disney and all my favorite quotes comes from there. 

"With great CHEESE, comes great responsibility ." - George Washington

"We are nothing without brotherhood and brotherhood is nothing without your brothers"- We Came As Romans

I think every group of black guys should have at least one white guy in it.
Dave Chappelle

There are only three things women need in life: food, water, and compliments.
Chris Rock

I enjoy quotes and do find them helpful as well as inspirational. One of my favorite quotes that I am sure many people have not heard is:

"By being a racing driver you are under risk all the time. By being a racing driver means you are racing with other people. And if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver because we are competing, we are competing to win."

This quote really demonstrates the passion that former Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna had for driving and is unlike any one persons passion i have ever seen for anything. He was truly the best. RIP Senna
