Just the Quotes

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
~Mark Twain

"Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these."
~Susan B. Anthony

"Great minds have purposes, others have wishes."
~Washington Irving

"Don't be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated; you can't cross a chasm in two small jumps."
~David Lloyd George

"Whenever it is possible, a boy should choose some occupation which he would do even if he did not need the money." (A girl, too.) ;)
~William Lyon Phelps
