"Sometimes, Gin, life leaves you without directions, without guideposts or signs. When this happens, you just have to pick a direction and run like hell."
"That's how you win at life, Gin. You have to imagine your way through. Never say something can't be done. There's always a solution, even if it's weird."

Great quotes! I just loved those books! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat quotes and so true about life :)
ReplyDeleteI've hated to admit that there is always an option. It may not be one that you like, but its still an option. Great quotes. I haven't read The Last Little Blue Envelope yet, but I need to.
ReplyDeleteExactly :) And yes you must try it.
DeleteAhh! Love these quotes and I enjoyed both of these books too. I immediately put them in my classroom!

ReplyDeleteGreat advice! I love reading great quotes. I recently downloaded a free book of inspirational quotes on Amazon. For the bad days...it helps!
ReplyDeleteO cool! Do you remember the name of it? :)
DeleteSo true!!! "Pick a direction and run like hell"
ReplyDeleteI think that should be on a bumper sticker or something!
That would be awesome :)

DeleteGreat advice. I think I'm most partial to the first one! "Run Like Hell....." lol.
ReplyDelete;)
DeleteLove these! Great advice. It's funny because when I was younger, I imagined it would be much easier than this. Life, that is.
ReplyDeleteRight? I think we all did/do ;)
DeleteI've been meaning to give these a try! I have the first one from when it was a Kindle freebie awhile back.

I think that's how I got mine actually :)
DeleteI did love these books, they were full of life advice (plus the whole plot revolved around getting out and living). Great quotes :)
ReplyDeleteYes! They are.
DeleteAwesome advice! I especially like the 2nd quote. "there's always a solution, even if it's weird."!! I'm catching up on all the blogs I read. I'm a bit behind. I'm sorry for being so MIA.
ReplyDeleteNot at all :)
