Live a little!!

Welcome! I have a great love and respect for the written word and those who have taken the time to write it! I believe that expression in the form of poetry, novels, dramatism, essays, short stories, etc. inspires creativity and emotion which in turn inspires action and action results in change. So here I have compiled some of my favorite quotations. They are from a wide range of sources and from a broad spectrum of time. Look around and feel free and submit your favorite quote:)
