I don't keep track of quotes that much but here are some that I like. The first two are from books I read, some I saved on my computer, and some I favorited on tumblr.

8. "Readers, from my heart to yours: May you find the happiness you seek, the peace and joy and comfort of community. May you be safe and secure and strong. Be proud of who you are. Be visible so you can see each other, find each other, show the world our humanity. Be true to yourself and those you love. Use the words and actions against you to strengthen your will. Teach acceptance and celebration of difference and diversity. Keep your sense go humor. Recognize your place in history and continue to work for positive, peaceful social change." - Julie Anne Peters
