Top 10 Quotes for 2005

When you love quotes, as I do, it is difficult to choose top 10 quotes. I was recently asked what my favorite top 10 quotes were. I really had to give it some thought as there are so many quotes that have helped me over the years.

Finally, after much thought, I picked the quotes that are my favorite. The point about quotes is that depending on your circumstances, and where you are in life, you will find your favorites will change with time and with your current situation.
