Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...



Abigail Adams (1744 – 1818):
“If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation.”

and
“Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”

and
“I've always felt that a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting points of view he can entertain simultaneously on the same topic.”




George Eliot (1819 – 1880):
“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”

and
“I like not only to be loved, but also to be told that I am loved. I am not sure that you are of the same mind. But the realm of silence is large enough beyond the grave. This is the world of light and speech, and I shall take leave to tell you that you are very dear.”

and
“A friend is one to whom one may pour out the contents of one's heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that gentle hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.”

and
“It is always fatal to have music or poetry interrupted.”




André Gide (1869 – 1951):
“Everything's already been said, but since nobody was listening, we have to start again.”

and
“Do not do what someone else could do as well as you. Do not say, do not write what someone else could say, could write as well as you. Care for nothing in yourself but what you feel exists nowhere else. And, out of yourself create, impatiently or patiently, the most irreplaceable of beings.”

and
“Envying another man's happiness is madness; you wouldn't know what to do with it if you had it.”




Karen O (1978 - ):
“Wait, they don’t love you like I love you.”




Jenny Owen Youngs (1981 - ):
“Love is so embarrassing
I'm this awkward and uncomfortable thing

I'm running out of places to hide it”
