QUOTES OF VARYING INSPIRATION
"A box without hinges, key, or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid."-Tolkien
This is a page of some of my favorite quotes, as well as some quotes of my own. Mine are mostly verses from my short stories, or lines that sound cool which may also happen to have a meaning. In common, they are all inspiring, and it was my goal to find the most inspiring just for this page—But, if you don't exit this page inspired, perhaps at the very least you'll be informed—like Tolkien's riddle above, golden treasure inside is hid, and it was my goal to provide you quotes with just that—whatever that treasure might end up being for you. See what you can find.
"Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape?...If we truly value the freedom of mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can!"
J.R.R. Tolkien
"Move yourself to where the biggest problems are."
Elon Musk
"There are very few who can see the Sunrise for what it truly is. You can. Know this and claim your spot to see its rising."
Jon Michael Babb
"Do not go where the path may lead. Instead, go where there is no path and leave a trail."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The meaning of life can be found in the stumbling uphill towards the City of God."
