Cool, which one are you using as your FB status?
I don't know. They're so many to choose from. I'm going to look at them again and ATTEMPT to pick one.
Okay, here's the one: "Success is a journey not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome."
It was between that and two others:
"Remember, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday."
"One has to remember that every failure can be a stepping stone to something better."
Thanks again... now I'm off to update my FB status. :-)
All of these are my favorites! For today I’ve picked this one: “Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.” Henry Ford. And I just love all the quotes of Napoleon Hill!

Loved your quotes. You have reminded me of the power of a few well chosen words. Randolph Churchill said "Ulster will fight and Ulster will be right", and resigned a country to civil unrest that lasted many decades. Encouragement must be tempered with wisdom.

thank you for these inspirational quotes, I'll have to keep this list for motivation. ...my favorite quote: Pablo Picaso's!
I love that you have taken the time to gather these in one place ... I hope you continue to do so. I am one of those people who have inspiring and thought provoking sayings & quotes all over the place. In fact, about 15 or so years ago a friend and I published a little book for women who were going thru some sort of crisis (we both worked at a crisis center at the time!) ... so, thanks!
Thanks Susie!!
It is always a good idea to use relevant ones in your letters and in essays/stories also.
Good to hear that rodrigur!!
And the quote you mentioned is based on reality so it is a great one. Simple but true!
Living-n-Grace, that is an interesting news. Would you like to share the name of that book?
Personally I find quotes very encouraging and a great source of inspiration. I am sure that book of yours must have helped those women.
I love these, especially - "It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer."
Albert Einstein
This is how I get most things done in my life. It's how I find things when everyone else tells me they've been stolen by goblins too. ;)
Kookoo, this one is pure gold. Einstein has shared his secret of success. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Great compilation....you have many of my favs.
Thanks Carrie!! :)
If you like quotes you should check out my blog sometime. I have a list of quotes of myself, that is, quotes of things I myself said or wrote in which I felt were worth taking note of or sharing. Either due to their wise, funny, or peculiar nature. A lot of them were epiphanies. When I feel inspired to, I will also write a hub.
