I really enjoyed this goal and it motivated me to read lots of books to find great quotes. I am now going to move on to finding 365 quotes so that I can put a different quote on my website each day.

”...”there are three things in this world that engender deep emotional bonds between people. They are health, wealth and children” (quoting Michael Milken)...When you help someone through a health issue, positively impact someone’s personal wealth, or take a sincere interest in their children, you engender life-bonding loyalty.”
—Keith Ferrazzi, author of “Never Eat Alone”
This is an interesting quote which made me think. The author gives examples like giving people health tips, helping people find a job, pass referrals to someone, mentoring someone’s child. It all seems quite straightforward.
“It is fundamentally the confusion between effectiveness
and efficiency that stands between doing the right things and
doing things right. There is surely nothing quite so useless as
doing with great efficiency what should not be done at all.”
—Peter F. Drucker
“There is no such thing as a “self-made” man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success.”
—George Burton Adams
“Friendship is created out of the quality of time spent between two people, not the quantity. There is a misconception that to build a bond, two people need to spend a great deal of time together. This is not the case. Outside your family and work, you probably can count the people you see a great deal of in the course of a month on two hands. Yet, surely, you have more than ten friends. It is what you do together that matters, not how often you meet. That’s why you have to pay special attention to where you’re most comfortable and what activities you most enjoy.”
—Keith Ferrazzi “Never Eat Alone”
“The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, sometimes you gotta put up with the rain.”

“What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we do know for sure that just ain’t so.”

“Beware the Deadly Donkey
Falling slowly from the sky
You can choose the way
You live, my friend
But not the way you die”

“He knows not where he’s going
For the ocean will decide –
It’s not the destination
It’s the glory of the ride”
