Quotes

Lately, I've been stumbling upon several quotes that have really stuck with me.  They don't have any cohesion, necessarily, but I wanted to share them together anyways.  Sometimes you just need someone else to say things for you. 

First, from one of my new favorite blogs:

"To define a tomboy requires searching far beyond the simple notion of wearing boys' clothing.  Tomboys have influenced the expanses of popular culture including fashion, film, music, and literature.  And although the tomboy is often identified by clothing, what makes her wholly so is an inherent sense of confidence, rebelliousness, and adventure."  Tomboy Style Blog

At the end of a very inspiring TED talk about empathy by Sam Richards this quote from Fyodor Dostoevsky was displayed on the screen:

"While nothing is easier than to denounce the evildoer, nothing is more difficult than to understand him."  Fyodor Dostoevsky

Along the same lines as what my grandpa used to say,

"You don't know someone's situation until you've walked in their moccasins."

And from a motivating speech by Gary Vaynerchuk:

“You need to care about everything, and it starts with yourself. Look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, What do I want to do every day for the rest of my life? DO THAT…whatever you need to do, DO IT.” Gary Vaynerchuk

“Legacy is greater than currency.” Gary Vaynerchuk

We all need a little motivational speech every once in a while.
