Get inspired with 1000+ amazing quotes

I am a huge fan of quotes

Whenever I think of something 1/2 useful or deep, I quickly discover that someone has said it with more verve and brevity. Hence, a running list of great quotes. This is not exhaustive (of course) and I did my best to attribute to the right person (uh, the interweb is not perfect). Also, since the majority of quotes are 50+ years old lots of “man”, not people.

How to organize this list?

I gave this lots of thought, how to put things into “buckets” so they are useful? In the end, this is a resource – not a narrative, or self-help guide. Ergo, I just kept it simple.  Short quotes up front, long ones in the back. Basic, I know.
