Quotations

 

I have been fascinated with the ideas of others for decades and have been collecting quotations for just as long.

 

My obsession is now your treasure trove of the ideas and observations of writers, artists, philosophers, athletes, businesspeople, entertainers, activists, scientists, politicians, and others.

You will find quotations for most occasions, particularly if you are looking for some wisdom about creativity, art, success, social justice, equality, and living a good life. 

There are famous quotations here, such as Henry David Thoreau's "Things do not change. We change."

There are obscure quotations here, such as Rita Dove's "Courage has nothing to do with our determination to be great. It has to do with what we decide in that moment when we are called upon to be more."

The pages are organized by the last name of the person being quoted, or the first name in the case of people like Babe Ruth, Cher, and Plato.

I am always adding to these pages, so check in often.

Also, if I have misquoted someone, please let me know so that I can fix the error.
