Quotations of Peoples

I have this book that's filled with quotes. I started it a year or two ago. The quotes are from books, friends, movies, verses from the Bible, or just random things I've found online or in stores. I thought I'd share some of them with you.

Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death. ~Earl Wilson

Every experience God gives us, every person He puts into our lives, is the perfect preparation of a future only He can see. ~Corrie ten Boom

Friendship is a glorious melody which only increases with the passage of time. ~Jane Pierre

If you're tempering your thoughts in relation to who you are compared to who God is, you won't be as prideful because you'll see how small and insignificant you really are.

People have a misconception that creativity is sitting down and writing a story or painting a picture. Creativity is being goofy. ~Nate Miller (again.)

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Imagination is more important than knowledge. ~Albert Einstein

Your friends will know you better in the first minute you meet than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years. ~Richard Bach

If you have it [love], you don't need to have anything else. If you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you have. ~Sir James M. Barrie

If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together, there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even when we're apart, I'll always be with you.
~Winnie the Pooh

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never saw a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had. ~Anonymous

The greatest obstacle to being heroic is the doubt whether one may not be going to prove one's self a fool; the truest heroism is to resist the doubt; and the profoundest wisdom, to know when it ought to be resisted, and when to be obeyed. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Never look down on someone unless you're helping him up. ~Jesse Jackson

That's the end of my post for today. Have fun. Be safe. Don't die. (That reminds me...I went to a Bible conference last year and one of the speakers said "You shouldn't die. It's not good. Don't. Do it." That's pretty much all I remember from it. Ha.)


~Words they'll try to shake you
Don't let them break you or stop your world from turning
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let them burn~
