Does anyone else scope out the quotes others have on their posts? I just caught myself scrolling through the pages and only reading the quotes.I can't help it, I like the quotes.

Not so much scrolling for the quotes, but I do make note of them. Don't they often reflect the personalities of the posters? (I mean as opposed to just posting a quote because it's interesting, or applies to an event on the calendar or in the news, etc.) Why do you think I spent so much time finding one that I thought fit me? (Other than the looks and acting ability part.)

I don't always look for them, just caught myself doing it.
Your quote is one that I have always liked.
"Don't they often reflect the personalities of the posters?"
Agreed, the quotes are like a mini introduction of the poster.
If I find a quote that fits I will have to add it.![]()

I've used the same Super Mario Bros. 3 quote for many, many, years, and I never change it anywhere I go.

I love reading the quotes. I often get inspiration from them. Mine does represent my personality. If I don't remind myself of it I tend to get run over.

I like them too! My siggy line is boring now, it used to be more interesting and I always had the "brick wall" quote...I might have to add one in again. My fav source is Brainy Quotes, they have zillions of great ones!
Thanks for the kick-start, I'm fixing it right now!
