“The best way to predict your future is to create it!”
“A kiss is just a pleasant reminder that two heads are better than one.”
“It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.
Everyone is gifted - but some people never open their package!”
“I've learned that a smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.”
“Always laugh when you can. It is cheapest medicine.”
“A hug is a great gift - one size fits all, and it's easy to exchange.”
“80) There are only two things to worry about, either you are healthy or you are sick. If you are healthy, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you are sick there are only two things to worry about, either you will get well or you will die. If you get well, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you die there are only two things to worry about, either you will go to heaven or to hell. If you go to heaven, then there is nothing to worry about.

This *free* e-book was a fast reading and quite entertaining. I'm not a huge fan of inspirational quotes, but this contained a variety of quotes, some I really liked and some other made me laugh so hard. It was a nice way to start the year, and as the first book of 2013 I shall say that I will take some of this quotes as advice in order to achieve my dreams and goals.
Some of the quotes that made me LOL: (Not spoilers, but if you are going to read the book, you might as well skip them)
9) Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.
11) May your life be like toilet paper... Long and useful.
15) If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
58) Borrow money from a pessimist - they don't expect it back.
80) There are only two things to worry about, either you are healthy or you are sick. If you are healthy, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you are sick there are only two things to worry about, either you will get well or you will die. If you get well, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you die there are only two things to worry about, either you will go to heaven or you will go to hell. If you go to heaven, then there is nothing to worry about. And if you go to hell, you'll be so darn busy shaking hands with your friends you won't have time to worry.

very light book :D ..took about 30 min. ^^
i liked it ..changed my mood ..made me smile :)
..liked all the quotes :) here some quotes ^_^
5.)
Most things that we think are impossible in life, is
because we have never tried them. So go for every dream and
opportunity before making a judgement.
12.)
If you think you are too small to be effective, you have
never been in the dark with a mosquito!
17.)
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember,
amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic
24)
How things look on the outside of us depends on how
things are on the inside of us.
26)
It's not hard to make decisions when you know what
your values are.
27)
Everyone is gifted - but some people never open their
package
31)
The best angle from which to approach any problem is
the try-angle. :D
34)
It's not who you are that keep's you back, it's who you
think you're not. So start believing in yourself!
38)
I've learned that to ignore the facts does not change the
facts.
39)
I've learned that it's those small daily happenings that
make life so spectacular. So start enjoying those little things in
life - it does make a difference.
45)
I've learned that sometimes all a person needs in life, is
a hand to hold and a heart to understand.
51)
Did you know that opportunities are never lost? That's
because someone will always take the ones you miss
60)
There is no telling how many miles you will have to run
while chasing a dream
65)
Time goes by so fast; people go in and out of your life.
You must never miss the opportunity to tell these people how
much they mean to you.
67)
Change is the essence of life. Be willing to surrender
what you are for what you could become
72)
Defeat may test you; it need not stop you. If at first you
don't succeed, try another way. For every obstacle there is a
solution. Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
The greatest mistake is giving up.
73)
Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the
romance and you find out you still care for that person
76)
Many an opportunity is lost because a man is out
looking for four-leaf clovers.
86)
Life can either be accepted or changed. If it is not
accepted, it must be changed. If it cannot be changed, then it
must be accepted.
90)
There are no speed limits on the road to excellence.
93)
Achieving starts with believing in yourself.
94)
Tears are words the heart can't express.
100)
If you cannot help worrying, remember that worrying
cannot help you either. Today is the tomorrow you worried
about yesterday. If you worry you die, if you don't worry you
die, so why worry?

لذيذ أوي هيخليك تفكر وتبتسم
هيخلص في نص ساعة
بس هتحس لما تخلصه انك لازم تبقا أقوي وتبتسم علي طول ومتقلقش من حاجة خالص
A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your
words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become
habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your
character; it becomes your destiny
The mark of a successful man is one that has spent an
entire day on the bank of a river without feeling guilty about it.
Bad habits are like a comfortable bed; they are easy to
get into, but hard to get out of.
It will do no good to argue if you're in the wrong. If
you're right, you don't need to.

كتاب جميل جداً يعرض مئة إقتباس مُختلف يدعوا إلى التفكر والإلهام ..
خفيف ويقرأ في أي وقت، كما أنه جميل جداً ! بعض الإقتباسات ظريفة جداً مثل ( أتمنى لك حياة طويلة ومفيدة كورق الحمام xD (

Well, half of the title was accurate, and I don't want to say which, but I'll give you a hint: he's decent at counting.
Some of the quotes were worth reading, and some were funny, but if you spend more than five minutes reading this book, you read way too slowly. Overall, I got it for free, and I feel ripped off.

A super short read, this collection of quotes is meant to be an inspirational book on how to life.
February 17, 2012
The book is exactly what it says it is, one hundred quotes to make you think. I admit I didn't count them but I will take the authors word on it.
I thought the quotes themselves were a mixed bag; some were funny, others weren't, some I would even use myself (for my scrapbook pages or a card for inspiration), others didn't even make sense to me. I couldn't figure out a situation where someone would even say something like that for it to be a quote in the first place.
For the most part I didn't think the quotes were all bad. I would recommend it for someone who wanted to have something to ponder and pass the time.

This is bought thought provoking and funny. It is amusing, as well as serious. It is a no-brainer, but a thinking book. One minute I'm flying through it, the next minute, I'm caught by a quote and thinking on it all day long. I love how this book makes me feel about it. I'm mesmerized! I can pick it up when I want to just read something light, and when I want to read something that makes me think...all wrapped into one neatly put together package. LOVE IT!
May 24, 2012
This book was a very great and easy book. It was a book of 100 quotes to make you think and they really did make you think. Every quote brought a new thought to my brain and that is why it was such a fun book to read. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a quick and easy read that is still meaningful!

An okay little book, nothing jumped out as an outstanding quotation though.

Not really. Most of them didn’t make me think. More or less made me go, “Huh?” Just fast enough of a read to not be completely boring.

Está bien, pero muy corto. Literal son 100 quotes, algunas mejor que otras.

This little book of less than 15 pages had an impact on me and i wish from all of you to get a 5mn per/day to aspire this beauty for a beautiful tomorrow.

This gets 3 stars because I simply liked it. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Some quotes were cute, some did make you think, some weren't too great. Definitely not an inspirational book to live by, but it was a quick read while I soaked in a bubble bath. Took all of 20 minutes to read the 100 quotes. Don't take the book too seriously or use it as a life guide, but there are a few nuggets worth keeping in mind.

'' Here are a collection of 100 quotations, from unkown authors, which will put life into perspective and given something to think about''.

Some quotes are silly, some thought provoking, but really just a random quote list, rather than a structured book.

100 quotes, yes. To make you think, no. Its a google search in "book" format.
