Here's one of my favorites:

"100 years from now? All new people" — Anne Lamott

One of my favorites to quote is

“Slàinte!”

-said by the Irish or those in Irish bars across the globe

All kidding aside one of my favorites is

“Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” ― Dalai Lama

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

- Margaret Mead



"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man."

"Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything."

- George Bernard Shaw



"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds"

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
