Quotes

This week we will look at the quotes of famous Americans.  

Reading quotes is a good way to learn new ideas that can inspire us to be more successful in our own lives.   But it’s also important to judge each idea against our own situation, experience, culture and values to see if we agree or disagree with each statement.  Remember even though they are famous, they are also human and capable of bad decisions and mistakes.  That is why it's really important to think deeply about the words and ideas of others before making them our own.  What’s right for them, might not be right for you.  You have to decide for yourself.

Here is our first quote of the week -

"Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds.  See the world.  It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories."
-Ray Bradbury, author
