    Elwood P. Dowd from the Movie Harvey

    "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me. "

    "When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence." ~ Ansel Adams ~

    I'm a photographer, and this is the most beautiful quote to me.

    I have the world's longest favorite quote...but it is a good one.

    The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

    Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.

    The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.

    And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes. - Charles Swindoll

    What's your favorite quote?

    This is a great topic! I love having quotes, especially on my motivation board. Here are a couple of mine:

    “Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”
    --Albert Einstein

    "Do not wear yourself out to get rich; have the wisdom to show restraint."
    --Proverbs 23:4

    "Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened."
    --Billy Graham

    "We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and exploring new things, for we are curious, and our curiosity leads us down new paths"

    It is a Walt Disney Quote... I like it enough to have "keep moving forward" tattooed to my foot.
