A collection of quotes
I have always loved quotes. One of my favourite songs growing up was 'Everyone should wear sunscreen' by Baz Luhrmann. It is full of great quotes - just about every life situation can be summed up by one of the lyrics.
It is great to have a place to collate and share my favourites.

"You can't solve a problem with the ways of thinking that created it"
​
Albert Einstein
"Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that have never crossed your worried mind. The kind that blindsides you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday."
​
Baz Luhrmann
"If a problem is fixable, then there is no need to worry. If it's not fixable then there is no help in worrying"
Dalai Lama
The unique human capacities of self-awareness, imagination, and conscience enable us to examine first creations and make it possible for us to take charge of our own first creation, to write our own script. Put another way, Habit 1 says, “You are the creator.”
