We all have our favorite quips and quotes. Some of us even collect them! In our travels around the Social Networking circles we often run into inspirational, motivational or humorous quotes and sayings that catch our attention and this is an ideal place to bring them to share with others!

Post as often and as many as you wish, and whenever possible, include who said it.

GT - I confess, I collect them. I carry a little book around me and jot it down.

Karen - your last quote is so true. Ignore those that inspire you with fear and depression. I firmly believe that if you have a dream, go get it and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Here is a short and sweet one:

"Don't get bitter, just get better"
