So I have this thing for quotes. From books, movies, interviews, speeches…some people have an amazing way with words, and make it seem easy to combine them in a way that inspires millions. I, unfortunately, am not that creative, but who says living by the words of others is a bad thing? Here’s a list of some of my favorite quotes; a list that changes basically every day, because the ratio of quotes to posts on my Tumblr feed is about 1:5. “Holding onto anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.” -Buddha “A woman is not written in braille; you don’t have to touch her to know her.” -Anonymous “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.” -Anonymous “Everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear.” -George Addair “Don’t plant your bad days. They grow into weeks. The weeks grow into months. Before you know it, you’ve got yourself a bad year. Take it from me—choke those little bad days. Choke ’em down to nothing.” -Anonymous “That’s the thing about people who mean everything they say. They think everyone else does too.” -Khaled Hosseini “Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress; working hard for something we love is called passion.” -Anonymous “Maybe our favorite quotations say more about us than about the stories and people we’re quoting.” -John Green
