My Favourite Quotes

INSPIRATION - is so often the means whereby we can be lifted from either a bad mood, despair, or that dull state of mind which descends on each of us from time to time. And INSPIRATION can be the key which unlocks the door to better, healthier, greater, more creative thoughts and actions. I have always found the wonderful and often eloquent words of great thinkers, discoverers and leaders help me to find my way towards the light when darkness threatens - or to point the way through a sticky problem. And such words often open my mind, and many more minds to greater and more positive things which can be done. The Human Spirit needs food for growth and development and for sustenance during tough times. Maybe some of these words will INSPIRE you......I hope so........

Please help me to be inspired and keep this list of great words alive and growing - by sending me your own favourite Quotations, so that I can add them. Any language will do !
