I love good quotes!

[BobD]

I apologize in advance if theres a thread of quotes already, I looked and didn't find one.

I'm a quote person, you name it, sports, inspirational, motivational, funny, I like them. What about you? Do you have any to share?


I'll start with one of my all-time favorites:

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson


Thanks, Bob

Song lyrics that I love from Mumford and Sons:

You must know life to see decay

Love, it will not betray you
Dismay or enslave you, it will set you free
Be more like the man you were made to be
There is a design, an alignment, a cry
Of my heart to see,
The beauty of love as it was made to be
