I really don’t know when it started because for as long as I can remember, I have loved reading and “collecting” quotes. First, started writing them in a specially purchased, beautiful diary. Later, I moved them to Google Notebook, and now, in true Web 2.0 fashion, I’m migrating my quote collection to Diigo (slowly).

I like quotes so much that I spent an entire week during my first NaBloPoMo sharing my favorites in several different categories:

Quotes make me happy because so often they touch me deeply. Right here, I feel like I should tell you my favorite quote, the one that has touched me the deepest. But I can’t really do that because there are so many. So here are three that have really been on my heart lately.

Love each other and you will be happy. It is as simply and as complicated as that. MEH

It’s so true. Marriage is as simple and as difficult as just loving each other.

Life, if well lived, is long enough. Seneca

Am I living life well? If I died right now, would I be satisfied with the life I have lived? If not, then I’d better get at it!

Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you. Carl Sandburg

Am I really in charge of my life? Or am I letting other people, other tasks, other responsibilities take me away from the ones that are truly my top priorities?

What are some of your favorite quotes?
