Quotes:
Because other people say it best!  Please share your favorites!

Do one thing every day that scares you

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

Strangers are just family you have yet to come to know.

To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today
