I love sjlx’s goal to make a book of quotations. I’d love to meet her so that we can swap quotations as I love them too. Here are some of my favorites:

Love is anterior to life, posterior to death, initial of creation, and the exponent of breath. _{Emily Dickinson}

Love the animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Fyodor Dostoyevsky

I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.” _{Henry David Thoreau}

How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself. Anais Nin

True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new. _{Antoine de Saint-Exupery}

Cats are smarter than dogs. You can’t get eight cats to pull a sled through snow. Jeff Valdez

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. ~ Anais Nin

Love is giving someone the ability to destroy you, but trusting them not to.

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

Some people are settling down, some people are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies.
Carrie Bradshaw

If two people have only one thought between them, something is very wrong.
Carrie Bradshaw

I like my money right where I can see it… hanging in my closet.
Carrie Bradshaw

The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them, that’s the essence of inhumanity.
George Bernard Shaw

Life is as dear to a mute creature as it is to man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not die, so do other creatures.
The Dalai Lama

Killing an animal to make a coat is sin. It wasn’t meant to be, and we have no right to do it. A woman gains status when she refuses to see anything killed to be put on her back. Then she’s truly beautiful.
Doris Day

If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn’t follow. I’d be at the bottom to catch them when they fall.

I got to thinking about relationships and partial lobotomies: two seemingly different ideas that might just be perfect together – like chocolate and peanut butter.

God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.
Jacques Deval

Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.
Dr. Seuss
