List 100 quotes I like

When I started this list, I decided that I would try to be more creative and post a picture to go with each quote. Some were easy, some were hard; for the last five quotes I couldn’t think of any visual link to the words.

I’m technically finished with the list now, but I still want pictures for all my quotes, so I’ll keep it around for a while. Maybe if I leave it alone for a while I’ll think of something.
