Recently, I have been compiling quotes that mean something to me. That got me thinking that the rest of you melons might have quotes to share that I would like to read. So in this thread, please share quotes that inspire you. They don't have to pertain to a specific subject, just as long as it is something that you think is interesting and would like to share with us. The quote can be from a song lyric, a speech, an interview, a poem, etc. . .
I'll start off with a few:
"In ev'rytin' you goin' do there is a wrong way and a right way, and if you listen good you will know the right way because there is a voice inside talkin' to ev'ryone, seen? Seen! "- Bob Marley
“Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value.” - Albert Einstein
“Search others for their virtues, thyself for thy vices.” - Benjamin Franklin
“We’re all idiots, babe. It’s a wonder we can even feed ourselves.” – Bob Dylan
“History is more or less bunk.” – Henry Ford
“Religion is the opium of the masses." - Karl Marx

We haven't time, and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time.” – Georgia O’Keefe “When you feel in your gut what you are and then dynamically pursue it - don't back down and don't give up - then you're going to mystify a lot of folks.” – Bob Dylan "If you don't read the newspaper you are uninformed; if you do read the newspaper you are misinformed." - Mark Twain |
