Quotes That Inspire Me

I thought today since the magic letter is Q, instead of babbling about quotes and why they inspire me I would simply post some of my favorite quotes. Words move each of us for so many different reasons and I feel those reasons should be intimate and personal for each and every person out there.

These are a few of the ones that move me. Some are movie lines, others from writers. Enjoy
