ReplyDeleteAnd to you and your family as well!
DeleteHappy New Year, Kay!
ReplyDeleteGood quotes, I like that second one.
They all seemed like good things to think about, especially in the tumultuous world we live in.
DeleteWise words. Happy New Year, Kay!
ReplyDeleteThanks JoAnn! Hope you're settling in as well as you can until your house renovation gets completed. We've done that before and it is a big project, even if you're not doing the actual work yourself. Ha!
DeleteThanks for sharing such thoughtful words to ponder at the start of 2020. Wishing you a happy new year filled with good health, glorious adventures, and great books.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Catherine! Look forward to seeing what you're reading this year.
DeleteHappy New Year, and happy reading in 2020, Kay! I’m looking forward to our book talks this year!
ReplyDeleteI am as well, Robin. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteHappy New Year Kay; I love those quotes. My favorite is:
ReplyDelete“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” —Ghandi
Yes, I think that one has a lot of wisdom that each of us can think about. How we might 'be the change'. I'm planning on working on that.
DeleteWonderful quotes, Kay! I hope you have a wonderful year of great books.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Les! I just felt like those quotes spoke to me and hoped they would to others as well.
DeleteI LOVE that C.S. Lewis quote! Happy New Year! :D
ReplyDeleteI love it too, Lark. And I believe that it is true.
DeleteI enjoy quotes and these are particularly inspiring. I have been thinking about re-reading Maya Angelou's first memoir (and possibly continue with the rest).
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Sounds like you've got a good plan, Tracy.
DeleteAnd to you, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Kay! Love the quotes!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Angela!
DeleteExcellent quotes! Wishing you a wonderful 2020, Kay!
ReplyDeleteAnd to you as well, Iliana!
DeleteI love those quotes! Very fitting for a new year! Hope you've a great year ahead, Kay!
ReplyDeleteI liked all of them very much. Thanks, Melody!
DeleteOooh, I love all of these quotes! The Maya Angelou one seems especially profound. It reminds me of the Serenity Prayer, a copy of which always hung in my home growing up.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Yes, all of these spoke to me in some way.
DeleteI have used all of these as motivation in the past year or so. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGood to know that they meant something to you as well, Stacy.
DeleteHappy New Year Kay! I love the quotes and could use all the motivation I can get this year.
ReplyDeleteKatherine, you're at a very busy time of life. Best of luck as 2020 proceeds and feel free to 'borrow' the quotes. LOL
DeleteHappy New Year! Those are excellent sayings to live your life by! "Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does." This! I try to remind myself of this everyday.
ReplyDeleteYes, I thought all of these had a lot of wisdom. Sometimes we need to just remember that change starts with small steps (like many other things). :-)
