So if you know me, then you know I'm a HUGE quote nerd. I am constantly searching through quote books, googling quotes, and exploring quote websites. I caption all my Instagram pictures with a quote that means something to me. All my friends always joke about it and wonder where I come up with all the quotes, but the truth is I just love discovering new ones! I feel like quotes speak to your soul, and sometimes they're the little words you need to hear to get you through the day. Since quotes are such a huge part of my life, I figured I would share my favorites with you today! Picking which ones to put in this post was super hard haha, but these have all inspired me in some way so hopefully you can all get something out of them too!
