Hey guys!
Eu me lembrei de uma tag bem legal que circula (ou andou circulando algum tempo) no Youtube, e achei interessante começar por aqui! É a "Quotes in English". Originalmente, temos que mencionar cinco, mas...vou colocar uma do Nelson Mandela que gosto muito:
"After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb."
Essa frase sempre vem à minha mente quando enfrento algum novo desafio, e até mesmo na aprendizagem de inglês. haha
Hope you like it!
Love,
Malu

Excelente Maluconsolino, também gosto muito de quotes.
Tem uma que gosto muito, de H .Jackson Brown Jr.:
“Never make fun of someone who speaks broken English. It means they know another language.”

Hi Malu!
Very nice quote! We always need inspiration to get over our own problems and move on. Very nice topic, by the way! 😃👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My two cents:
Where there's a will, there's a way.
Popular proverb
"Success isn't about how much money you make. It's about the difference you make in people's lives."
Michelle Obama's inspiring quote
Hope I have improved this great topic with meaningful stuff for you all! 😉

Awesome, guys! It's so exciting to read your contributions.  I have another one! It's by Maya Angelou: ""Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." Valentine's day "inspiration", or not...hehe |

Hello everyone!
Here's a good quote that I've read in a Rhonda Byme's book, The Secret.
"Energy flows where attention goes"
Being a pessimist, you'll concentrate your mind in bad feelings, that will probably multiplicate your problems instead resolve them.
Great night for everybody, byeee!

Homer — 'Of all creatures that breathe and move upon the earth, nothing is bred that is weaker than man.'
I think that's why once we start to change things around us, we never want to ''return to nature''
