Quotes for Inspiration, Humor and Just a Little Uh Huh!

John Myers
A couple of weeks ago I published a piece in which I shared some of my favorite quotes from Twitter. Retweeting Great Quotes on Twitter for Both Inspiration and Followers discussed how retweeting quotes on Twitter can be enjoyable and rewarding. I love good quotes. They're like tiny tidbits of inspiration, humor, and all sorts of other entertainment that are short, to the point, and fun to read.

In that article I shared some of my favorite quotes from the previous month or so and I'd like to share some more here. They're all quotes that I've read and Retweeted to share with my followers on Twitter and now I share them with you, my readers. I hope that you find some inspirational bytes, some humor, or just a couple of uh huh moments from reading them. Enjoy!

    I, too, liked the Richard Back quote. I just can't get into Twitter, tho. I just don't see the point. What can you possible say in 140 characters that means anything!
