    This is in my signature, but knowing my propensity for changing my signature I'll repeat it anyway,

    "Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."

    My sig, not the slut one though that counts too :)

    Not really a quote as such, though it was said by someone.

    I was at a funeral for a female friend (non religiousy sort of type thing) some years ago and the person taking it said...

    "The passing of someone can be seen as a ship leaving port. We're all standing on the harbour sad and crying and waving goodbye and someone says 'there she goes'. But far far away there is another dock, with many people waving and cheering and someone shouts 'HERE SHE COMES' "

    Not so much an actual quote - just sharing some amazing words from MikeS:
    MikeS wrote:
    I try and see the best in people. Everyone has a dark side, a side that we don't want other people to know about for whatever reason. But we all have that part to us so in my opinion there's no point in focusing on it - makes much more sense to me to look at the good in people and make the most of it. Like we all tell ourselves that the bad in us is what's special and it just isn't, it's a given if you're a human being. The good is what's unique, and well worth focusing on.
