Someone in the main forum started a post a while back on favourite quotes and I thought I would borrow her idea. I do enjoy a meaningful quote. As they say:

Imitation is the sincerest from of flattery! - Charles Caleb Colton

Cheers!

Years ago an elderly friend of mine who was a young mother during the depression said "I like to do the dishes because that means I had something to eat". I think about that often when I start to complain about doing the dishes.

"You're never to old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child."

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

"Don't Give up. I believe in you all. A person's a person no matter how small."

Some of my favorite Dr. Seuss quotes :)

This one is from my sister Betty who heard it from an elderly friend.

"I don't mind if you write in my dust just don't date it".

That's one of my all time favorite quotes.

Carole, I like that quote. Too many of us women change ourselves to please others. I learned that lesson but it took me forty years to do so.
