Quotes that I like

CMF · ‎23-10-2016

I couldn't think of a more creative name for this thread so I kept it simple. I love coming across quotes that make me feel good or make me think about a situation in a different light. I have a "little book of confidence" that I used to carry in my handbag for when i needed it and I have a few other little books with quotes that I reflect on now and then

I thought it would be good to share some and encourage others to do the same.

For starters I have:

People are not addicted to alcohol or drugs, they are addicted to escaping reality.

The Rev. Graham Long, leader of the Wayside Chapel in King's Cross for many years.
