Quotable Quotes - Post 1

Introducing "Quotable Quotes"!!  I will be collecting quotes throughout the week and trying to post and share them with you.  These are just ones I find in books or I hear from other people. :)

"It's funny how different things make different people cry.  Some people cry when they get hurt, my biggest problem was when I got boiling mad, but Mother didn't very often cry unless she was real happy. She cried when I gave her the six dollars. At first, she just looked at the money as if she didn't believe it was real - it was a five-dollar gold piece and a cartwheel - then her eyes filled.  She pressed the end of her thumb against her teeth for half a minute, as she always did when she was trying not to cry, and then she just bubbled over." Man of the Family, by Ralph Moody

"Half my heart has a grip on the situation.  The other half takes time." (I can't remember where I found it)

"This is the story of how I died." Flynn Rider, Tangled

"Could we with ink the ocean fill,
and were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
and every man a scrib by trade,
To write the love of God above,
would drain the ocean dry.
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
though strestched from side to side." 
- "The Love of God", by Frederick Lehman (This song has been running through my head the last 2 days. Which reminds me...)

"Are you tired? Cause you've been running around my mind all day." - Pickup Line (I don't use these except to be funny with someone I know pretty well.)
