Quotable Quotes

Every now and then, we tend to look for quotable quotes to fill in the gaps and to make up for the lack of appropriate words to express our thoughts. Here's a great collection that highlight such quotes.
Quotes also allow us to convey wisdom, add a little credibility, and probably to find a famous "ally" who shares a similar view.
But there's also many instances where great sayings are made where the author is unknown and yet their intended words carry a lot of weight. These quotes too make their way into this collection.
Whether you're looking for a quote for your speech, your presentation, your card or your letter, I hope that this series of great quotes will help bring words to what you feel in a succinct way.
Happy quoting these quotes!
