Heidi's favorite quotes

"Be the Change that you wish to see in the world."
Mahatma Gandhi

"I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying."
Oscar Wilde

"You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough"
Mae West

1742
"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify them, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."
Jack Kerouac

1655
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
Mark Twain
