FAVORITE QUOTATION
« on: May 18, 2011, 03:57:14 am »
As you know, the new DCEs include a quotation each day. That got me to thinking. What are my favorite quotations? By that I mean words to live by, words that have had a profound impact on the way I think, my attitudes and the way I live my life.

Here are my favorites:

"There is no act, in and of itself that is either spiritual or non-spiritual. It is the motivation of the person performing the act that makes the difference." -- Ram Dass
              

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."  -- Neil Armstrong                                                                                      

If you have favorites of your own, feel free to contribute. Please include the source of your quotations or the name of the individual who is credited with saying them, if you know. I may add more of my own as they occur to me. You can too!

Thanks, everyone! Let's have some fun with this!    :thumbsup:

"All I want is the chance to prove that money can't buy me happiness" - Spike Milligan, British comedian.

May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives. - - Lyndon B Johnson.

Saying slavery was the cause of the South's secession during the Civil War isn't politically correct -- it's correct correct. - Daily Show

Thanks ayerla41, bschmacher, and daveandruth for your great quotations!

Here's another of my favorites:

"Tomorrow is another day." -- Scarlett O'Hara (the last line of the timeless novel by Margaret Mitchell, "Gone With The Wind") as well as one of the most memorable lines from the film.

Let's hear from more of you! Hey, remember, if you post here, it will count as a contributory post toward your 30 posts/mo and will help you on your quest toward getting that $3 bonus!  :thumbsup:

My favorite quote is "Believe hals of what you see and none of what you hear." These are words I live by.

Life maynot be the party we hoped for, but as long as we are here we might as well dance.  :bootyshake:

For me what I believe the most in is:
" Don't ever let anyone bring you down, Have the courage to face all those obstacles in front of you as you are only able to live once. So go make the most of it each day." just like the meaning of the word Carpe Diem.
