Quotes

So I have started this "100 list" (you know the one of all the stuff you want to do in your life) and I am trying to encourage others in my life to do the same.

And one of the things on my list is to paint a quote on my wall. I'm a junkie for quotes and would love to know if any of the rest of you out there have any suggestions.

Here's my favorite one of the moment. Trying to live this. Not always easy, but definately trying. (And obviously WAY too long for a wall, but for a scrapbook page, it's perfect :))

"..but the biggest mistake I made is the one that most of us make while doing this. I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of the three on them sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages 6, 4, and 1. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in a hurry to get on to the next things: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less."
-Anna Quindlen

And the same thought in a much simpler way: (I used this a while back but it bears repeating.)
" If you don't stop and look around once in a while you might miss it"
-Ferris Bueller

Happy Wednesday. Don't forget to share your great quotes.
