Some of My Favorites

My favorite quotes

There are millions of wonderful and inspiring quotes. Some of my recent favorites are quotes from women.

I've always admired strong women. Eleanor Roosevelt, Rosa Parks and Oprah Winfrey to name a few.

And you would think that the recent environment lit the little feminist inside of me.

But that isn't true. Even as a child, I've been motivated by a few simple words published by a few select woman.

So here are a handful of some of my favorites. I hope they inspire you as much as they have inspired me.



The question isn’t who’s going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me.

Ayn Rand


A woman is like a tea bag-you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water.

Eleanor Roosevelt


I always did something I was a little not ready to do. I think that’s how you grow. When there’s that moment of ‘Wow, I’m not really sure I can do this,’ and you push through those moments, that’s when you have a breakthrough.

Marissa Mayer (CEO of Yahoo)



My favorite movie

Oddly enough my favorite movie has an all-star male cast. Now granted, the cast is the collection of some of the most attractive

actors available. But most important it's a story of how unique qualities of the individuals can benefit the team

The movie Memphis Belle is the story of the last mission of a B-17 WWII bomber. The movie showcases pure human emotions.

Fear, anticipation, humor, selfishness and heroism is portrayed in this 1990 film. I watch it when I need to remind

myself that in this topsy-turvy world we live in...heroes exist within all of us
