Aspire to Inspire

Quotes motivate, and inspire because they encompass years of wisdom of people who had experienced the same hardship, or undergone the same circumstances. There is power in these quotes. The right quote at the right time, at the right place can change a person’s point of view, or in some cases, a person’s life. It is like a key opening the lock to a recess of the mind which we did not know existed.

So, bear a few of these quotes in mind. You do not know when someone is inspired by that quote of yours.
