Whatever Turns Your Crank

Language, isn't it wonderful? The title, "Whatever turns your crank," is one small saying among thousands that brings a smile to my face. I love colorful expressions. Therefore, this blog will be a request to you, the reader to contribute to this love.

I would like every one who reads this blog to click the "like" button and in the comment section to write one thing: Your favorite quote or saying. That's all. I want to start a collection. If I can get enough of you to participate, I'll put them all in a post and see if we can save them for all who follow us.

Perhaps we can post them with the tutorials listed when you search using the black search bar at the top of the page, and call them "Favorite Quotes from WA Members." Whatever. It should be quite fun to see what you all come up with.

I'll start right now by posting my favorite, then will turn the blog over to you. Please add your own favorite to the list. Here's mine:

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

Okay, your turn.

The unbreakable bonds of friendship, forged in the fires of adversity.

To be all that we can achieve, we need to be with all who can achieve.

Be not quick to judge, correct or admonish. Listen, understand and accept.

Sometimes in life, we have to take a detour but it serves to remind us that our original path is the right one.

Twack Romero.

It would seem that I have a few in a folder. Take your pick.
I have more but I think it looks like you're doing alright as it is.

Thanks -- I'll pick one.

One I like a lot, since we spend lots of time working on posts and social media while our families and friends are out playing, is: Live How Other People Won’t, So You Can Live Like Other People Can’t."

I'm really looking forward to the second half of this one :-)

Good one...I'll wait a couple of days, then put all of them in a post and put them on here; ask for anyone who has not yet commented to add theirs. This is fun.

Fran, great idea.

You see things; and you say 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?'

Some times credited to JFK, but was first penned by George Bernard Shaw. I had it hanging in my office for years.
Have a great day

Great one -- consider yourself and quote added to the collection.

Reminds me of one I had hanging on my wall for years, by Ralph Waldo Emerson: "If you can't be free, be as free as you can."

Good post Fran.
If you believe you can, it's true. If you believe you can't, that's also true.
The possible gets done fast, the impossible takes a little longer.
We cannot change something that happens, only our perception of it.
We are all travellers on this journey called life and as such we should always help each other when we can.
If you keep telling yourself that life is hard, it will be.
A favourite: This body is the car I ride, the real me is deep inside.

I have a folder of sayings from several years ago that I wrote down one after another as they popped into my head. Quite annoying at the time as I couldn't do anything else until I had written them down. There are hundreds and came in very useful over the years.

Wonderful...now, how will I choose which one to put with your name?

They don't need to go with my name, not bothered. Just think its good if they help people. Sometimes the right words at the right time can make such a difference.
