The Power of Quotes

Writing is a form of expression. From the beginning of time, people have been writing things down for creativity, teaching others, and even to just remember things.  By just reading a small composition of words we can learn about ourselves and feel a connection to those words. A good quote can turn a bad day good or give you some inspiration when you are feeling unmotivated. When you are pressed for time, but would like to read something, look up quotes to get a small taste of literature or information. Check out some great quotes:
