What is your favorite quote?  |
|
 One of my hobbies is collecting quotes from books I've read or things I've heard in music or on the television. I have tons of journals on my bookshelves with quotes I've recorded. And I have a very hard time passing up the chance to find new journals or books on quotations whenever I pass by a bookstore.
One of my favorite quotes on friendship is by Anais Nin:
"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by meeting that a new world is born."
Do you have a favorite quote you would like to share? Do you collect quotes too?

1.  JuliaPan (403) | 3 years ago |  Well, I used to collect funny quotes and new-made proverbs and sayings. They are in Russian, so I don't think that would be interesting for an English-speaking site.
But I remembered a saying by Coco Chanel which I liked very much: "A woman has the age she deserves". That's true.
Thank you for the topic.:)

 Molly322 (114) | 3 years ago | I like that quote by Coco. Thank you for sharing it.
The Russian proverbs could be very interesting to read if you happen to have the English translations. I wouldn't let that keep you from sharing them! | |

| 2. ilovemoney (95) | 3 years ago |  Anything can be done but skiing through a revolving door.
The purpose of life is a life of purpose...Find and follow your purpose.

| Molly322 (114) | 3 years ago | Those are both great! I laughed out loud at the image of someone trying to ski through a revolving door! It made me think of one of those old Disney cartoons with Goofy on skis and all the trouble he got into when he'd fall down or ski off a cliff!
I really love the second quote about having a purpose in life. Do you know who said it? | |

3.  jhacky016 (1731) | 3 years ago |  Wow!! What a great collection you have. And its so nice to do that. I dont collect quotes but i just have one quote that can best describes me. It is a quote which i liked from the movie THE NOTEBOOK. it says
"I am no one special. I am a common girl with common thoughts. I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to my name and soon i'll be forgotten. I loved another with all my heart and soul, for me that was always been enough for me"

5.  dyupe_moe (176) | 3 years ago |  Here's one that I read some time ago: "You are never given a wish without being given the power to make it come true. " - One, Richard Bach
And here's one from a friend but I don't know who wrote it: "You do not lead by hitting people in the head. That is assault.. not leadership."

| 9. daredevil_69 (107) | 3 years ago | One friend in a lifetime is much, two are many, more are hardly possible. Friendship needs a certain parallelism of life, a community of though, a rivalry of aim. | |
