Great blog candy. Thanks so much for offering us another chance to win. Here's my card quote: A Woman is like a tea bag…you don't know how strong she is until you put her in hot water.

I like God doesn't give us more then he and we can handle together. great blog candy

Yosha April 30, 2007 at 8:13:00 PM EDT  

Wow! thanks for offering up another chance!

Here's mine:

"Ubi dubium ibi libertas"

meaning "Where there is doubt, there is freedom"

All I know is that this is a Latin proverb, not sure from where!

I am thinking of using this for dad's b-day card...he is all about logic and thinking things through!

Oh and I really like this too...

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

-Beatrice Hall [pseudonym: S.G. Tallentyre], 1907 (many times wrongfully attributed to Voltaire)

Wow...you are so generous to offer more treats! What a fun game. I'll be checking back to see what is submitted.

Live well, laugh often and love much.

Not sure if it's attributed to someone famous.

I also like ...Thinking of You or You're the best. A simple sentiment that is sure to warm anyone's heart!

Two that I remember from my teens while watching some of my best loved movies:

From Steel Magnolias: Well you know what they say: If you don't have anything nice to say about anybody, come sit by me!

From Anne of Green Gables: Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it.

I am in graduation card mode now, so this is my favorite Grad quote---

My fav for birthday cards-

I go to this site (http://www.inspirationpeak.com/) weekly for a new quote to put on my blog...here is this week's:

I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something I can do.

I always struggle with sympathy quotes and I found one that I truly love...

Death leaves a heartache
No one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
No one can steal.
