Simple Quotes

Ok, I am a relatively simple person. I like straight lines and the simple things in life. I prefer simple thought provoking quotes rather than lengthy monologues that leave little for creativity. Following are a few inspirational quotes. Hopefully at least one will be new to you. I pray your Wednesday was blessed.

Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
-Frank Outlaw

because it is dressed in overalls,
and looks like work.

but today is a gift we call the present.

You say they are "simple quotes". Well I beg to differ. I would call them "powerful quotes". The "meat" and "potato" kind. Loved every one of them.
