A place where I can share the quotes that I have collected (and keep collecting) over the years. I have gathered them from all sorts of sources. The "Quote of the Day" posts will always be a quote from a book and may be on any topic.

Quote It! Saturday


This blog is, of course, devoted to quotes. But Freda's Voice has a wonderful meme called Quote It! that I cannot resist participating in. You can post as many quotes as you like. To join in, hop on over to Freda's place!

I am still running behind on my usual posting. Especially for this page. And I don't see things getting better any time soon. Eagle Scout Court of Honor to get through. Upcoming surgery. Son's graduation....Yikes! Too much to do and not enough time. So, being behind, here's just a bunch of quotes from my collection.
