      Thank you, I have to acknowledge I borrowed these from a blog, Demanding Joy, which I referenced a couple of posts ago. This is the link to 100 great quotes: http://demandingjoy.com/?p=1032

      The last quote wasn’t sourced, so I don’t know what it is in reference to. But I like it!

      Thanks for reading and commenting!
