You can't just ask me to put ONE quote. It doesn't work that way with me. I should really make a thread on which quotes or sayings you hate/disagree with though, that'd be fun.

 

I've been seeing a lot of business related quotes lately (Can'tcha tell from my sig?) which inspire me, figured I'd share them:

 

"All great achievements require time" -Maya Angelou

 

"At first they'll ask why you're doing it, later they'll ask you how you did it."

 

"Great leaders don't set out to be leaders, they set out to make a difference. It's never about the role, always about the goal." - This is one of my favorites and incredibly true. I love anything business related and I think we all love money lol, but in the end of the day I enjoy the thought of creating something innovative, inspiring others, offering jobs, and building our economy.

 

"You only live once? False, you live everyday. You only die once."

 

"A goal without a plan is just a wish."

 

"Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." -Warren Buffet

 

"Mistakes are proof that you're trying."

"From the east side to the out west, fifty shot macs hundred shot tecs"

 

""Running from the cops through the motherfucking 7th, six bodied dropped, but nobody went to heaven"

 

""Talking 'bout this round 2 bitch we're ain't done with round one
All them niggas around you I bet when I up they ass run
My block got crazy guns, and we shoot them hoes for fun
Squeeze the trigger 'till my hand numb if you scared go to curch see revrend rum"

 

"Rest in piss to Lil Chris, yeah I know they fucking miss him
Don’t trip, his whole squad gon’ lay there with him"

I miss you when I can't sleep
Or right after coffee
Or right when I can't eat
I miss you in my front seat
Still got sand in my sweaters
From nights we don't remember

Anything by Rupi Kaur, Nikita Gill and Maya Angelou. The former two are poets, though. I also like "They name the most powerful storms after women for a reason" by r.h. Sin and For Girls Filled With Fire by Nikita Gill is my favourite poem.
