Abraham Lincoln once said, "We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses." Steve Jobs left us with, "If today were the last day of your life, would you want to do what you are about to do today?" Mahatma Gandhi advised, "Be the change you want to see in the world."

And let's not forget that a wise woman once said, "I feel like every year has a new energy, and I feel like this year is really about, like, the year of realizing stuff. And everyone around me, we're all just, like, realizing things." 

It's the quote that has sat upon a thousand cross-stitched pillows, served as the centerpiece of many a shelf-scape, and adorned so many Pinterest boards.
