SPREAD YOUR WINGS QUOTATIONS
“It is important to remember that we cannot become what we need to be, by remaining what we are.”

Max De Pree

“You have to know what you want to get. But when you know that, let it take you. And if it seems to take you off the track, don't hold back because perhaps that is instinctively where you want to be.”

Gertrude Stein

“A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.”

Maya Angelou

“There’s something very freeing about losing the anchors that have always defined you. Frightening, sad, but exhilarating in a poignant way, as well. You’re free to float to the moon and evaporate or sink to the bottom of the deepest ocean. But you’re free to explore. Some people confuse that with drifting, I suppose. I like to think of it as growing.”

Deborah Smith

“At times you have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself.”

Alan Alda

“No one can really predict to what heights you might soar. Even you will not know until you spread your wings.”

Gil Atkinson

“If we were meant to stay in one place, we’d have roots instead of feet.”

Rachel Wolchin

“And then there is the most dangerous risk of all...the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.”

Randy Komisar

“Don’t be afraid to expand yourself, to step out of your comfort zone. That’s where the joy and the adventure lie.”

Herbie Hancock

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go... ”

Theodor Seuss Geisel

“If you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.”

Neil Gaiman

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.”

Eric Roth
