little book of quotes

My mom recently gave me this little Paris notebook to keep my favorite quotes in! Isn't it cute? I mentioned a few of my favorite quotes before, but here are some others...

"Keep me up till five only because all your stars
are out, and for no other reason."
- J.D. Salinger (Seymour: An Introduction)

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling
is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter."
- Oscar Wilde

"We have all a better guide in ourselves, if we
would attend to it, than any other person can be."
- Jane Austen (Mansfield Park)

"Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you.
And sometimes, when you fall, you fly."
- Neil Gaiman

"I realize that most of us live on the skin - on the surface - without appreciating just how wonderful it is simply to be alive at all."
- Audrey Hepburn

"Remember, remember. This is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted"
- Sylvia Plath

"Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you."
- Lao Tzu

If you have any favorites I'd love to know them. I always enjoy finding new quotes. They can be so inspiring, and I often find myself remembering them right when I need them. I'm excited to fill up the notebook, but also a little nervous because my handwriting is...well, quite bad, really. Ha!
