I love quotes! So I have a ton:




You can always close your eyes to the things you don't want to see...but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel

There comes a point in your life when you realize who cares, who never did, and who always will. Don't dwell on people from your past that have caused you pain. There's a reason they didn't make it to your future...

Telephone and cable are all disconnected.
Life is full of the unexpected.

How funny is it now that you are Going Broke?

" I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life'. I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one." I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back... I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. " - Maya Angelou
