10 Life Quotes to Live By

by 1 Comment

10 Quotes to live by, wise words to teach your kids.

10 Life Quotes to Live By. Featuring Louis CK, Maya Angelou, Tine Fey, Anthony Bourdain, and more. Number 6 is my favorite!

When I saw this post “10 Painfully Obvious Truths Everyone Forgets Too Soon“, I knew I needed to adapt this for our home and homeschool. The post is all about those lessons we have learned in life, but we easily forget. I’m not incredibly philosophical, so I usually look to the more eloquent for some wise words. I love me a good quote! My husband and I agreed on 10 quotes to live by. When my kids FINALLY move out, I really hope these life lessons, or obvious truths are something they take with them. I hope you enjoy.

What are your favorite quotes? What are your words to live by?
