Quotations can give us inspiration, make us smile, or cheer us up on a bad day. Here are some of my favorites:
“If life gives you lemons, throw them back and demand chocolate.” (unknown)
“”Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” (Albert Einstein)
“If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything” (Mark Twain)
“Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.” (Dr. Seuss)
What are yours?
“Sometimes I sits and thinks, and other times I just sits.” Satchel Paige
I’ve collected a bushelful of good quotes, but here’s one that I just saw the other day: “On any given day, a writer may write the best she’s ever written. Is today your day?”
Oh dear, that’s too much pressure!
Another one I like is “..the reason for writing these letters [dispatches and essays] to Alicia [Patterson, the former publisher of the Newsday newspaper], is that it gives me a focal point, a person to address. I can’t write to everybody. You end up writing to nobody.” – John Steinbeck
