Re: hi, mariaki.......................
Hi dear Maggie; in answer to your question, I take them from various sources and from a few books full of inspirational quotes I have; I use them a lot myself and there is one for every occasion (if not more); I refer to them all the time - glad you like them too. Stay well my friend and God bless from a STILL sunny CY

Wonderful quotes!

and then this part you wrote -

"Together there is nothing we cannot do…………….." 

I totally believe this.  it's just getting the "together" part that is so difficult!  I believe we/people can do anything we put our minds too.

Hello my friend. The questioning was thought provoking. I was taken by the enjambment and what a difference it is without the questions marks present. It enhanced the flow so that the reader could continue as each question found its way into the inner mew. A sparkling effort!  sam
