Day 3... Favorite Quote

I love quotes.. I love having them written on my walls, posted on bathroom mirrors, or posted anywhere to remind me to wake up and have a great day. Which makes this post especially difficult, since there are so many quotes that I love. I find quotes to love everywhere! So instead of one simple quote I'll put up a few of my favorite life and literary quotes (from my favorite authors).

1. "Use what talents you possess, the wood would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best"

-Henry Van Dyke

2. "Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid"

-Albert Einstein

3. "After all this time?" "Always."

-J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows (Dumbledore and Snape)

4. "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a great fortune, must be in want of a wife." 

-Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice 

5.   With Blue - uncertain - stumbling Buzz -

      Between the light - and me -

      And then the Windows failed - and then 

      I could not see to see 

                                            (13-16)

-Emily Dickinson, "I heard a Fly buzz - when I died -"
