What is your favorite quotation? Why?


First Pictures 020I have read a few quotes that resonate with me, and really touch my soul, or ignite something within me. Have you ever had that experience? When I am writing, one of my signatures is quotations, and I often hunt for the perfect quote to add context to what I am saying. And many times I do find that perfect quote that says what I want to say but better than I could have said it.

Two quotes that I really love are:

“For things to change, we must change.” Jim Rohn

“If you don’t like where you are, change what you are.” Henry Knight Miller

I really like these two quotes because they tell me that I have a choice and that I can re-invent myself.

While I was walking today, I let my mind wander because I have been DOING and not BEING so I feel somewhat scattered and out of control. And once again I was reminded by that inner voice that we like to shut up, that I can rewrite my story because I am the author, and I am in control. I can weave my story any way that I want to.

We are always in a state of flux, and as Heraclitus says, we cannot step into the same river twice. I am rewriting parts of my story that do not work for me. Have you ever rewritten your story, or parts of your story?

What quote verbalizes what you are, where you are, or what you are feeling right now? What is your favorite quote? And why is it your favorite quote?
