QuoteButton Valentines Day Love Quotes

Happy Valentine’s Day! To celebrate, I thought I’d do a post with quotes on Valentine’s Day and love. Do you have a favorite saying/lyric/quote about love? Feel free to share your favorite in the comments.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”

1 Corinthians 13

“Love is all you need.”

Holiday Quotes

0808 0810 1618 2256 Holiday Quotes

Merry Christmas everyone! Since it is Christmas, I’m spending time with my family instead of being at the computer blogging. So, since it’s been 3 months since my back to school quotes post, I thought I’d just create a holiday quotes post for today. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and enjoys these quotes.

From one of my favorite Christmas movies – “A Christmas Story” I picked 2 quotes to share:

Ralphie as Adult: [chuckling] Ho, ho, but no matter. Christmas was on its way. Lovely, glorious, beautiful Christmas, upon which the entire kid year revolved.

Narrator: Aunt Clara had for years labored under the delusion that I was not only perpetually 4 years old, but also a girl.

From the book, “A Christmas Carol”:

… the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.

From the song “Frosty the Snowman”:

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal.

So, do you have any favorite Christmas/holiday quotes/songs? What about a favorite holiday movie or story?

Back to School Quotes

 Back to School Quotes
Wow! I can’t believe that so much time has passed since my last post of Summer Quotes! Since I just did the back to school blog hop bash and bombarded you with some great companies and products, I thought it was time for some lovely quotes. Today’s theme is back to school because almost everyone is back in school, now and summer is over. So, here are some good ones I found.

Being an education major, I had to share these two:

“There are three good reasons to be a teacher – June, July, and August.” ~ Author Unknown
“Schoolteachers are not fully appreciated by parents until it rains all day Saturday.” ~ E. C. McKenzie

These quotes are for all of us:

“Whoever ceases to be a student has never been a student.” ~ George Iles
“We don’t stop going to school when we graduate.” ~ Carol Burnett

So, what do you think? Do you have a favorite back to school/end of summer quote?

Also, do you have any themes/topics you would like me to do a quote post on?

Summer Quotes

 Summer Quotes

I realize that it’s been sometime since my last quotes post and you’ve been seeing tons of awesome product reviews and giveaways in the last month.  So, I thought it was time to take a breather from all of the products and write a quote post.  Since it’s been sooo hot/humid here, I thought it was a great time to dig up some summer quotes!  Yay!

James Dent once said, “a perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken” and Erma Bombeck said, “being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you.”

Oh, I love lazy summer days, for the most part.  I like being able to sleep in as late as I please and stay up all hours of the night.  Haha!  What about you?  What do you enjoy/dislike about summer?

Wow! I have made it through another year of college! Yay! I managed a 3.666 gpa for the semester. Not bad. icon smile Hello Summer Now, it’s summer! Yippee! I’m reminded of a song…

Educational Quotes – End of the Semester

So, I probably won’t be blogging much or on Twitter very often for the next few days. I’m not sure how often I will check in because it’s finals time! Want to know what I’ve got planned for the next few days? Well, I’ve got 2 finals tomorrow, one on Friday, one on Saturday and I move out on Sunday!

So, I’m going to leave you with some quotes on education!

~ Daniel J. Boorstin

“Study as if you were going to live forever; live as if you were going to die tomorrow.”

~ Maria Mitchell

I was looking at friendship quotes and decided to share one with you.

“Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.” – Samuel Butler

I think that is so true! What do you think?

Quotes of the Week

I know that many people participate in Wordless Wednesday by sharing pictures. I love pictures and I love looking at those posts. However, I really love quotes (I always have). So, I’ve decided I want to try something. I’m going to pick a quote (or a few) that I think applies to this week or that I like. If I get a good response, I’ll continue doing it.

I originally thought of this because it’s getting near the end of the semester and it’s beautiful outside. I really need some motivation to do some end of the semester papers and make it through finals. So, I started looking at quotes. Here are two quotes I picked for this week!

“I don’t wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work.”

~Pearl S. Buck

“I love deadlines. Especially the whooshing sound they make as they pass by.”

~Douglas Adams
