For years we have had the hobby of collecting quotations. Over the years our collection has grown and expanded. Since we were teenagers if we read a sentence or paragraph in a book that inspired us we would write it down. We have many books filled with wonderful sayings and famous quotes that at one time or another truly motivated us. Now we share this collection with you, we hope it inspires you to be the best you can be. We also use them when sending out cards or letters to people. We have a collection of thinking of you quotes that you may want to read and share with someone that you want to know they are in your thoughts. Also, you may want to visit birthday quotes for words to wish someone a happy birthday. You can add a positive thought to someones day by sharing these words.
We used many of these when we are setting our goals, they inspired and encouraged us to keep going when we faced challenges. Samuel Smiles is quoted as saying, "Time is of of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their authors' minds ages ago." No matter when or how long ago something was written or said, if it continues to be passed down, then there truly is wisdom in the words.
Reading the words of others can sometimes inspire us to learn more about the author and read more of their writings. Some of the best books we have read have been a result of reading a quotation by that particular author. For example when looking for baby boy names we found quotes that inspired us. Plus the author had some wonderful new baby sayings that we shared with the new parents. As Vicesimus Knox once said, "It often happens that the quotations constitute the most valuable part of a book." As Napoleon Hill once said, "Life reflects your own thoughts back to you." Your thoughts can be positively influenced by reading a saying or a quotation. We agree with Mr. Hill's words, life truly does reflect what your are thinking about. You may also enjoy reflections in this inspirational collection of short poems. We hope you find wisdom throughout these quotations, phrases, expressions, inspirational sayings and positive quotes.
