Junkyard Quotes: Week 10

1. “If you don’t know where you are going, you can never get lost.
One of my friends said this, when I was telling her that I’m scared I have no concrete plan about what I want to do as a career. I found it an optimistic way to think and it helped me stopped worrying so much and concentrate on what’s going on right now.

2. “I’m moody like the wind”
Another friend of mine said this line recently. I might have heard it before but it caught my attention this time and I thought it was a different way to say that her mood changes all the time.

3. “I'm not drunk I'm just wearing high heels”
I overheard someone say this in the pub and found it amusing. I know a couple of people who would say something similar :-)

4. “I will not say I have failed 100 times,I will say that I have discovered 100 ways that can cause failure
- Thomas Alva EdisonI will not say I have failed 100 times, I will say that I have discovered 100 ways that can cause failure.
Thomas Edison
I found this quote to be an optimistic way to think about failure.  

5. “I think it's been too long since they sent someone to the moon. I have a couple of people in mind.”
One of my cousins said this recently and I thought it was a different use of language to say some people in this world shouldn't be here.
