Quotes, My Social Interest

A social interest, filled with insight, creativity, and unending knowledge is all consistent in the world of a quote. I am definitely interested in quotes and find them to be extremely enlightening and inspiring. Every individual will look at a quote differently, and in that way the quote will hit close to home. One quote I really like is: “You can’t hang me for what I don’t say” quotes are simply words that people say, that usual can be interpreted differently by different people. “The hardest part about being lied too is knowing you weren’t worth the truth” Another great and moving quote is, “With power strength and ability you can accomplish anything”
They inspire me, as they can inspire other people. People go through whole life experiences and what they learned from the experience can simply be turned into a few words. To be shared with one another; Sharing knowledge, in its purest of forms. That is what a quote is.
Quotes help me grow to understand people, and myself easier than ever before. My ethics and ideals change and are tested by quotes, and some change for the better.
Other people have realized the power and simple greatness of quotes and have started up groups that revolve around the concept. Post Secret is a blog where people mail in post cards with their secrets written down creatively and artistically to the creator of post secret, then it is posted on the Post Secret blog for others to see. It is completely anonymous but through other people’s experiences and secrets an individual may feel more at peace with their secret, or become inspired or touched. It just goes to show just how much power words can hold; the power to change lives, to change words.
Again, it is up to the individual, just like with art, to give the quote meaning, and that I feel gives quotes a very personal touch. This is exactly why I love quotes. I know this isn’t your average 10th graders favorite social interest been at the end of the day, all you have is your experience, so why not share it.
