What's Your Favorite Inspirational Quote?

[Daryn Kagan]

My friend, Jeni, gave me the loveliest gift last year for my birthday. She bought a journal, passed it around to all my friends. Each one wrote their favorite inspirational quote. It was a starter kit for collecting quotes on my journey through life.

One of my favorites that I keep on my desk, "When you come to the edge of all that you know,
you must believe in one of two things:
There will be earth upon which to stand
or
you will be given wings."

What about you? I'd love to get a string of quotes going here.
Thanks@

One of my favorite quotes is short and simple and holds a very personal significance for me. It comes from Benjamin Franklin.

"A long life may not be good enough but a good life is long enough."

Matthew 2:28a "And it came to pass..."

There is more to that verse, but that is the part I like the most. Because everything comes to pass. No matter what it is, this will go and something new will come. I'll make it through today and see what will 'come to pass' tomorrow. :-)

My favorite inspirational quote that was said at my church one day was "Be Tired, But Don't Quit. That is what I live by when things seem tough.
