Hi..
16th and 20th quotes are really nice.. also one said by Buddha is a practical one which is also important for everybody.
#14 has a fierce energy.
#1 is extremely moving. I think I have read everything by Oscar Wilde, but can’t remember that quote. The feeling reminds me of De Profundis.
Thanks very much for the uplifting words. The quote that stuck with me the most is “If you can dream it, you can do it” Walt Disney
6, 8 and 16!! Believe in your dreams! You CAN turn your dreams into reality!!
Wow! its nice, to be great one must have a vision. “Dreams are renewable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born”.
Thank you! I frequently need something to remind me of why I am struggling now. I get so involved in day-to-day routines that I forget my dreams – the reason I do what I do.
I like #14 the best, it sounds like my situation

Hello Shawn,
Numbers 4, 8, and 14 resonated with me. These quotes are timely because I have been praying about some of the dreams I’ve had over the past year and a half. Some have come to pass and others are taking longer. They are all incredible and some days I struggle to believe they can really come to true.
Thank you,
Lisa
Love all the quotes but numbers 13 and 14 pop out the most…Thank you!!
