Motivational and Inspirational Words

I have been collecting aphorisms and quotes since my school days. It’s a hobby and a passion of mine. I was amazed that there could be so much information, knowledge, and meaning behind a few seemingly simple words. Whenever I came across a proverb, or axiom, or idiom, or aphorism, I would take a note of it. Later on, I extend the collection to things like Points to Ponder, Food For Thought, and anything that interest me. Till now, I am still collecting, and as passionate about them as before.

Here are some aphorisms to motivate and encourage you along your life’s journey.
