Because the last two days have been a bit on the crappy side and stuff like this always makes me feel better, here's a list of quotes I think are sort of great. I realize I've posted some of these before, but hey, who cares, right?

"To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you." - C.S. Lewis

"Above all, love each other deeply, for love covers a multitude of sins." - 1 Peter 4:8

"People generally see what they look for and hear what they listen for." - To Kill a Mockingbird

"You never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore."

"We read to know that we are not alone." C.S. Lewis

"Words, in my humble opinion, are the most inexhaustible source of magic we have." - Albus Dumbledore

"Turn your face towards the sun, and the shadows fall behind you."

"I just need some time in a beautiful place to clear my head."

"You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I rise" - Maya Angelou

"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do some things. That which I need to do, by the grace of God I will do."

"A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Let us then be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not the goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"Here on the pulse of this new day
You may have the grace to look up and out
And into your sister's eyes,
And your brother's face,
Your country,
And say simply
Very simply
With hope -
Good morning." - Maya Angelou
