I love this quote!

[Jane, Rooney & Stuart]

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up - totally worn out and screaming "whoo hoo what a ride'!

 

What is your favorite quote or motto?

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I'm thinking the wall in my master bathroom. I'll see it first thing every morning. Maybe a notecard tacked to the wall for starters, lol!

[Doris, Knox & Flash]

I like these, Bonnie! I tend to be a bit of a worry-wort!!

[F, Calla & Luca]

I like that first quote.

[Ronna, Murphy & Wilson]

I love this quote Bonnie.  Thank you for sharing it.

[Bonnie and Kona]

;o) Have a worry-free day, Ronna!

[Sherri, Sophie, Winston, & Kitty]

I like this Ghandi quote about Animals "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”

[Sherri, Sophie, Winston, & Kitty]

“It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.” Abraham Lincoln

 

And this one “You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never be hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, ...  

 

Keep in mind I'm not very good at following either of these. But they do make you think :)

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

I was going to say the 2nd one that Sherri wrote "Dance like nobody..."

DH and I have actually tried to incorporate that more into our life and stop being so scared about what might happen, what someone might think of us, etc.....

 

One of my favorites is from my grandparent's old ministers. It was framed in their house. His name was Bob Crilley:  "Pray daily, love deeply and leave the rest up to God".

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

That Lincoln quote was my dad's favorite. He recited it often, especially to me, lol.

[Bonnie and Kona]

The Lincoln quote needs to be emblazoned on my hand when I go visit my son! hahaha

[Kaytlin and Cooper]

Tis better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all

Origin

From Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem In Memoriam:27, 1850:  

the lines originally referred to the death of the poet's beloved friend.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

[Sharon & Monty]

I love the entire verse the most!  I never knew this.
