So....I was continuing a "Quote of the Day" Thread, but it was in Pre-Pharmacy....so, I'm making one here....I'll start with the quote....and hopefully this continues, or I'll just keep inspiring and posting :)

"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever."

"I've learned one thing, and that's to quit worrying about stupid things. You have four years to be irresponsible here, relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember the time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So stay out late. Go out with your friends on a Tuesday when you have a paper due on Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends, but college does..."

Are we allowed to post more than one? I have a list of them from my facebook.

"Education is the best gift you could ever receive, because once you have it, no one can ever take it from you."
 
"Wake up every morning with the idea that something wonderful is possible today. – Smiling is a healing energy. Always find a reason to smile. It may not add years to your life but will surely add life to your years. A consistent positive attitude is the cheapest ‘fountain of youth.' You've got to dance like there's nobody watching, love like you'll never be hurt, sing like there's nobody listening, and live like it's heaven on Earth."
 
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

"What is the point of being alive if you don't at least try to do something remarkable?"

"Medicine, law, business, engineering: these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love...these are what we stay alive for."

Sorry....I wasn't home for two days and I had no internet access....:( In addition, my phone died and I wasn't able to charge it (so no data either....)

So, yesterday's quote and today's quote and an extra one (to make it up to everyone)

"Duct tape is like the force, there is a light side and a dark side and it holds the universe together."

Anyways, I will put 4 quotes up today to make up for it :)

"Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?""
