In Which I'm Having A Bad Day

I'm having a few bad days in a row and to avoid ranting and taking things out on my lovely followers (that's you), I'm going to post a few quotes I like. Because who doesn't like sharing and getting little insights into who a person is by the things they like. Also, I've hit 40 followers! (This makes me very happy :D)

So without further ado, I present some of my favorite quotes about anything and everything:

You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars. - August Rush

Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. -Dr. Seuss

There is, I believe, in every disposition a tendency to some particular evil— a natural defect, which not even the best education can overcome. - Pride and Prejudice

I looked perfect up in one of my etymological dictionaries and found that the word perfect comes from the Latin and means "to do thoroughly." So perhaps we need to redefine perfect. If it really means "to do thoroughly," then one might say that it means to be human, to be perfectly and thoroughly human, and that is what is meant by being perfect: human: not infallible or impeccable or faultless, but human. -Madeleine L'Engle

The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it. Resist it and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden itself. -Oscar Wilde

Be the change you wish to see in the world. -Mahatma Gandhi
