A Collection of Powerful Quotes

Today we have quotes by other people. Hey, I promised to blog daily, and may have found the one possible loophole to publicly sharing my writing - sharing other people's! What can I say, having a rough moment and needed to read and remember more than I was able to write today. Here we go....
