Let’s break up the work week. Lay one of your favorite quotes on me. It could be from a movie, poem, song or even something you wrote.
I’ll start with one I wrote earlier on my Twitter page:
.
“You must do the thing you think you cannot do” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
Your turn.

I love these quote thingies on your blog! Ok. I got one."An education is merely everything which is left over once everything which has been taught has been forgotten."I think Benjamin Franklin wrote it but I honestly don't know.Plus, I don't think it is a word for word quote and I'm too lazy to look up. (I suck. I know.)

"Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days."-Crash Davis, "Bull Durham"

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no-one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."- Marilyn Monroe
