Quotidian Quotes

I like quotes, and have collected a large number of them over the years. I just wanted to make a page to share them, chat about them, and otherwise just enjoy them. I hope you have as much fun reading these quotes as I've had collecting them. Feel free to reply to these posts with your comments about the quotes, or even post your own quotes up if you want to share them.

P.S. I know the word quotidian means "something that occurs daily". I am NOT going to be updating this daily I like quotes, but not that much. I just like the feel of the phrase.
