You now have unlimited access to all articles on the site! Express your feelings with another’s help Call me crazy, but rather than borrow novels from the local library, I check out quote books. I read page after page and copy my favorite sayings into a spiral-bound quote book. When did my love of quotes begin? Years ago, when I was a child. While growing up, I collected hundreds of quotes and hung my favorites on my bedroom walls. Even now you’ll find quotes in my house—they’re written directly on the wall in an artistic style. I also love to include quotes on my scrapbook pages. While the quotes don’t take the place of my journaling, they help me express what I feel about life and the people around me. Read on for a sampling of my favorite quotes, plus a handy list of places to find memorable sayings. “A quotation at the right moment is like bread in a famine.” — The Talmud “There was never a child so lovely but her mother was glad to get her asleep.” — Adapted from Ralph Waldo Emerson “Life itself is the proper binge.” — Julia Childs “Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.” — John H. Whitehead “No day is so bad it can’t be fixed with a nap.” — Carrie Snow “Where is home? Home is where the heart can laugh without shyness. Home is where the heart’s tears can dry at their own pace.” — Vernon G. Baker “God has given us our memories that we might have roses in December.” — J.M. Barrie “Love the moment, and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries.” — Corita Kent “A mother’s arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them.” — Victor Hugo “There is more to life than increasing its speed.” — Gandhi “A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.” — Unknown “Earth’s crammed with heaven and every common bush afire with God.” — Elizabeth Barrett Browning “Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has power, genius, and magic in it. Begin it now.” — Goethe “Once in a lifetime one should be allowed to have as much sweetness as one can possibly want and hold.” — Judith Obrey “Where there is great love, there are always miracles.” — Willa Cather “Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.” — Rabindnanath Tagore “Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.” — Helen Keller “Seek not outside yourself—heaven is within.” — Mary Lou Cook “A baby is God’s opinion the world should go on.” — Carl Sandburg “Family faces are magic mirrors. Looking at people who belong to us, we see the past, present and future.” — Gail Lumet Buckley “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” — Albert Einstein “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson “A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.” — Agatha Christie “Life’s truest happiness is in the friendships we make along the way.” — Anonymous “Babies are such a nice way to start people.” — Don Herold “Life isn’t a matter of milestones, but of moments.” — Rose Kennedy “Seek the wisdom of the ages, but look at the world through the eyes of a child.” — Ron Wild “We’ve had bad luck with our kids—they’ve all grown up.” — Christopher Morley “A heart in love with beauty never grows old.” — Turkish proverb page [1] 2 3 next »
