I love those quotes and any like them. Keep up the good work.
The quotes for various reason are very inspirational and I look for them when they are sent to me
Thanks Gwen!
These are great quotes. I look for ones to pass on.
Thank you Shawn. I don’t tell you often enough how much I enjoy the quotes. I fell in love with quotes in my high school English class. My teacher wrote one on the board each day. I didn’t realize until many years later what a gift he had given me. Thankfully I was able to let him know this and to Thank him for his gift. I just had my 50th class reunion and it’s amazing how many of my classmates felt the same way.
That’s awesome, Lois. I always think of chalk board quotes as being a very useful way to influence young minds in a positive way; I have several people who email me to say that’s how they use my collections. I assume you wrote some down from that class and still have them today?
Some great quotes. I especially liked Martin Luther King’s and Muhammed Ali’s.
If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought. -Peace Pilgrim. How this one jumps out at me. Thoughts are powerful and if you think good thoughts things will be good. Thanks Shawn. You always make me think.
