SPREAD YOUR WINGS QUOTATIONS
“There’s something very freeing about losing the anchors that have always defined you. Frightening, sad, but exhilarating in a poignant way, as well. You’re free to float to the moon and evaporate or sink to the bottom of the deepest ocean. But you’re free to explore. Some people confuse that with drifting, I suppose. I like to think of it as growing.”

Deborah Smith

“You have to know what you want to get. But when you know that, let it take you. And if it seems to take you off the track, don't hold back because perhaps that is instinctively where you want to be.”

Gertrude Stein

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.”

Eric Roth

“I am not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world. ”

Mary Anne Radmacher

“I haven’t a clue how my story will end, but that’s all right. When you set out on a journey and night covers the road, that’s when you discover the stars.”

Nancy Willard

“When you come to the edge of all that you know, you must believe one of two things: either there will be ground to stand on, or you will be given wings to fly.”

O.R. Melling

“No one can really predict to what heights you might soar. Even you will not know until you spread your wings.”

Gil Atkinson

“I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing that I wanted to do.”

Georgia O'Keeffe

“Live your life by a compass, not a clock.”

Stephen R. Covey

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ”

Mark Twain

“To infinity and beyond.”

Buzz Lightyear, Toy Story

“It is important to remember that we cannot become what we need to be, by remaining what we are.”

Max De Pree
