Using Inspirational Quotes to Enhance Your Documents
By Jerry L Aragon   
Rated "G" by the Author.
Last edited: Tuesday, October 06, 2009

"We humans are proof that God has a sense of humor!" Scribarbe Bungo. This is one of my favorite quotes, and since I've been in the humor business for over 50 years, it fits right in.

For over 18 months ago, I began collecting these wonderful inspirational/motivational quotes, and I have placed a quote on every page of my website, which numbers over 140 pages, etc. Additionally, I have sprinkled them in my book, to dress it up a little.    I've compiled them on my website, and just gave them away, to anybody who could use them. 

In the middle of 2008, and with over 90 articles, I decided to use them in my articles as well,  By using 2-3 quotes per article, it's going to take several months to complete the job. I think these quotes enhance any document, and I will share with the reader...ten of my articles and how these quotes enhance and go with the piece.  (Reminder: most of my articles that I have completed, have 3-4 quotes on them)

1) Article: Auto Racing: Ladies...Start Your Engines;
Quote: "Auto racing is boring...except when a car is going over 200 miles an hour...UPSIDE DOWN!"  Dave Barry

2) Article: We're All Going to Die Sooner or Later;
Quote; "I'm not afraid to die...I just don't want to be around when it happens!"  Woody Allen

3) Article: The Many Benefits of Exercise;
Quote: "Whenever I get that awful feeling of wanting to exercise...I lie down until that feeling goes away!"  Robert Hutchins
Quote #2; "Exercise is a dirty word.  Everytime I say it...I wash out my mount with chacolate."  David Walters

4) Article: My Dog Ate My Homework;
Quote: "For those why want to succeed...will find a way...and for those who don't...will find an excuse."  Leo Aquila

5) Article: The Seriousness of Depression;
Quote: "When your neighbor loses his job, it's a recession...and when you lose YOUR job...it's a depression."  Harry Truman

6) Article: How I Saved My Dog Daniel;
Quote: "The better I get to know men...the more I find myself loving dogs."  Charles de Gaulle

7) Article: Is Bald Beautiful?
Quote: "I'd rather be bald up top...than inside!"  Joe Garagiola

8) Article: Smoking Sucks: How I Quit Smoking;
Quote; "More than one thousand people quit smoking every day...by dying!"  Unknown

9) Article: The English Language is All "Greek" To Me!;
Quote: "Drawing on my command of the English language...I said nothing."  Robert Benchley

BELOW IS ANOTHER OF MY FAVORITE QUOTES;

10) Article: Humor Has Been My Life's Calling;
Quote: "He really turned his life around!  He used to be miserable and depressed...and now he's just depressed and miserable!"  Harry Kalas

I think the reader will agree with me, that people all over the world, have a unique and wonderful way of saying things...in a way, that I could never say, etc.
An example of great writing is the email I received recently;

"Your article on "Inspirational Quotes," helps me a lot, and it does make a big difference in article writing...like adding spice to a dish, etc.  There is pazzazz and impact, and makes the article more enjoyable and memorable for the reader."  CB

I'll give the reader a few tips on how to conduct a search in the Internet to find quotes for your own work.  I'm sure there are quotes for everything under the sun, so you have to reduce or narrow your search, so you don't spend a lot of time on the Internet or waste time, etc.

To do this, you have to place the word, "quote" in all your searches.  You are not looking for a song, a movie or a play...you're looking for a quote.  Put "quotation marks" around the search words.  If you're looking for quotes on dogs...key "dog quotes."  If you're looking for quotes on confidence, key "confidence quotes" and so forth

Be sure to place quotation marks around your words for search, to narrow down your search.  Every time I've entered words for a quote, I've found something on that subject.  I might not be able to use it, but I still found information on that subject.  Good luck!

THANKS TO EVERYONE! 
(Celebrating 3 years in writing)  Since the middle of 2008 and to the present...the traffic to my writing site has quadrupled...and I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to visit and to read my articles.  The reader, therefore, is the most important person in all this publishing process!
