Quotations at the Moment

[elizabeth22673]

Do you ever run across a quotation that really hits home...either something you feel strongly about...something you want to work on or improve on or just something going on in your life at that moment that just says it. Or simply post a quotation you enjoy


I'll start with one that I saw recently and liked:


"No one is in control of your happiness but you; therefore, you have the power to change anything about yourself or your life that you want to change.” Barbara De Angelis

"When the people we love are taken from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them; buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever."
