This is an ever growing collection of quotes that inspire me.

“To give pleasure to a single heart by a single act is better than a thousand heads in prayer.” -Gandhi

“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” -Eleanor Roosevelt

“One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests. They come to you. When you are genuinely interested in one thing, it will always lead to something else.” -Eleanor Roosevelt

“Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.” -Eleanor Roosevelt

This is one of my favorite poems of all time, and this is the best part:

“The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.”
-Robert Frost from “Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening”

“It was not an adventure; it was my life.” -Yehuda Amichai
