QUOTES

DURING MY HIGH SCHOOL YEARS.....

MY SENIOR ENGLISH WOULD HAVE US RIGHT A QUOTE FROM THE BOARD, EVERY SINGLE DAY.

AND TO THIS DAY I STILL LOOK OVER THEM AND EACH OF THEM HAVE STICKED WITH ME AND PROBABLY ALWAYS WILL. I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD PUT THESE QUOTES UP TO SHARE.....

SOME OF THESE WERE FROM BOOKS, SOME WERE FROM THE TEACHER HIMSELF, SOME WERE FROM WELL KNOWN PEOPLE......
