    They may forget what you said or did- but they'll never forget how you made them feel!

    I love quotes and put a new one on my chalkboard in the kitchen every week... everyone who comes over checks it out.

    This week was a funny one:
    "you can get much further with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone" al Capone

    I have a chalk board in my kids bathroom I write inspiring quotes on every week :smile:
    I'm trying to use subliminal messages to get them to think hahahhah! :laugh:

    I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
    --M. Monroe

    I want Jesus to come back and go THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!
    -- Margaret Cho

    Happiness depends upon ourselves.
    --Aristotle

    Life is messy.

    "Floss only the teeth you want to keep."

    My dentist told me this. It is probably not his quote. I like this quote though b/c it can be applied to many other aspects of life.

    I heard this on the movie Kungfu Panda " The past is history, the future is a mystery, right now is a gift that is why they call it the present!" I just loved that when I heard it.

    Here are a few of my favorites:

    A small house will hold as much happiness as a big one.

    Happiness keeps You Sweet,
    Trials keep You Strong,
    Sorrows keep You Human,
    Failures keep You Humble,
    Success keeps You Glowing,
    But Only God keeps You Going!

    If life did not have its little battles, there would be no victories.

    Learn to speak kind words -- ...nobody... resents.. .them...

    A true friend never gets in your way -- unless you are on you way down

    My life is my own. My future is my own. My destiny is my own. No one else can change these things for me, I must make the effort to change them for myself.
