There are little quotes every 2 days in my journal

[xStarBright]

Does this belong in coping?
I've only just noticed - in my journal, there are little quotes at the bottom, every two days.

I just thought I would share the ones I have so far..
Has anyone else got any nice quotes?
The first quotes are a bit long.

I don't understand it completely, and could maybe count as offensive? PM for quote.

These are good quotes

I'm going to copy down some of them right now, I'm not in such a safe place
Thanks.

I forgot to mention... I have a lot of quite nice quotes. Some of them are from Pope Benedict XVI, and some of them are from great plays and good musicians, too. I'll share some, but I'll probably have to make a separate thread - I have a MASS of them
