Favorite Quotes by DL Larson

I admit it, I love quotes. I have them splashed all over my house, inside my kitchen cupboards, on plaques, slips of paper and cut outs made of wood. Some are decorated by talented artists, some are hand written, others pulled from a magazine or typed up to preserve the message. In no particular order here are a few: (many have no author and for that I apologize)

It's funny how we can quote things, but don't always know where the saying comes from.
