Great quotes indeed!! Happy TT!
Lisa - Lil’ Duck Duck
Those are great quotes! All of them were fun to read!
Rita Mae Brown’s got a point, ya know?
Neat list. I found a great one by Cher, that was about how her greatest fear was making safe choices. I’ve forgotten the actual wording, but the spirit remains with me.
Happy TT!
Those were great! I loved the Dolly Parton one…hee hee!
I really do have sick mind, I like the Ellen DeGeneres quote.
My memory is so bad, that I can’t remember quotes, but I do have a bumper sticker that says:
“Maybe the Hokie Pokie, is what it’s all about”.
Fun list Shelly!
OK, I’ve got to go with #4 as my favorite, although it is hard to choose! Thanks for making me laugh!
Definitely great quotes and from great women. Maya Angelou is a wise woman…
