Quotable, Notable, and Dotable: My Top Ten Favorite Quotes

Here is a list of my top ten favorite quotes!

10.
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest of men." -Gene Wilder (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.) Lighten up! Even Elmer Fudd needs a laugh sometimes!

9.
"I haven't failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." -Thomas Edison When you fail you learn! And knowledge is power so failing leads to success! Quoted by one of the most successful people in history.

8.
"Give me an army of West Point Graduates and I'll win a battle. Give me a handful of Texas Aggies, and I'll win a war." -Gen. George S. Patton I'm kind of a huge Aggie. Gig 'em! (I don't want to hear about it Sara-Jane)

7.
"Man will do many things to get himself loved, he will do all things to get himself envied." -Mark Twain I find this so true. I just want to be loved- don't you? And when people envy you (this is the case for me at least...) feel better about myself. I don't necessarily do anything to be envied, but its nice to feel good about yourself!



6.
"Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart." -Confucius We all need to follow our hearts, our dreams, our passions! Go where your heart leads. If it leads you to dark alley way...turn around and redirect yourself. Stop only when your heart is full and whole. Don't turn back on yourself, you'll just end up stuck.




(I feel like you Sara-Jane, puttin' art up on my blog!)

5.
"If you're a bird, I'm a bird." -Noah Calhoun (The Notebook) Oh man, if you have ever seen the Notebook, this is pretty much always going to be top ten! Such a sweet love between Noah and Allie. I know I want it. And I mean, come on- who doesn't want love?!

4.
"Shame is nothing but a product of education." -Melchior Gabor (Spring Awakening) I wish I lived by this. I wish I could stand up to people, or just talk to random strangers. I need to start being more bold.



3.
"In the end, it is not the years in your life that matter, it is the life in your years." -Abraham Lincoln In my opinion, life is about quality- not so much quantity. Life is something we all get to experience. If you want to have a bad time here on earth, go ahead, I want to enjoy my stay while I can. That doesn't mean you have to be happy and perfect all the time; its okay to be grumpy, just throw yourself a pity party and move on! Learn from your mistakes! Keep on keepin on!

2.
"Guilt is a wicked ghost." -Evie Walton (Driving Lessons) I love it because it is just so true. I do something even sort of wrong and I worry, and fret because of it. And especially if you meant to hurt someone, or something, if you meant it- you won't ever get away from it.

1.
"Poor thing! I think she must be constipated." -Reba Freitag [I'll give no explanation]
