My friend mentioned that sometimes she needs to read something inspirational like a quote to help her with anger, sadness, confusion etc and anything to do with dealing with life in general. She suggested she might make some little post its to stick around that would catch her eye and make her think throughout the day. So I thought it would be nice to make her some cards on my PC with quotes for her Christmas present since money is a little tight this year. I already made quite a few with quotes off the net but I thought that it might help to ask on here what everyones favorite quotes are. So post as many or as few as you like, and why they are your favorite quotes. The best quote or the best collection of quotes will get the 10 points.. Proverbs, short prayers and other inspirational or moving sentences are also welcome. She is also an animal lover so anything to do with pets, animals and nature is also greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance to all who answer!
PS I am printing them on business card stock so they cant be too long or the text will be to small to read. About 3 full sentences is all I can fit… Thanks!
I LOVE this idea!!! Did this for my sweetheart a couple of years ago. It took him until March to read all the quotes I included
Some all time favorites are from ILLUSIONS by Richard Bach
"There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in it's hand. You create problems because you need their gifts"
"The bond that links your trued family is not one of blood, but of joy and respect in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof."
"You teach best what you most need to learn"
"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however."
"Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you."
"Here is a test to find whether your mission on earth is finished : If you're alive, it isn't."
"The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy."
"If you have imagination as a sesame seed, then all things are possible."
From ONE by Richard Bach:
An easy life doesn't teach us anything. In the end it's the learning that matters: what we've learned and how we've grown.
We are each given a block of marble when we begin a lifetime, and the tools to shape it into sculpture… We can drag it behind us untouched, we can pound it into gravel, we can shape it into glory.
Any powerful idea is absolutely fascinating and absolutely useless until we choose to use it.
Also from Richard Bach:
"The only thing that shatters dreams is compromise." ― The Bridge Across Forever

"The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it." ― The Bridge Across Forever

"Avoid problems and you'll never be the one who overcame them." ― Running From Safety

"…not being known doesn't stop truth from being true" ― There's No Such Place As Far Away
