WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
The MotivateUs Community - Comments - PAGE 9
"I've only contacted you once before....early enough in your web-venture to be listed on page 2 of your "what they're saying about us" section.Over and over again, I refer to your site for just the perfect little story, the exact emphasis I'm trying to convey and the precise moment...perhaps the finest teaching tool was modeled for us by Jesus as He used "parables" to communicate with clarity and relevance - your pages give me that tool.
Your site continues to bless me - and I'd like to offer to become your 1st PAID subscriber....should you ever need to charge for access. I have joined other things with far less value. Your site would certainly be "money well spent."
I often refer to your site as the best example of the positive power of technology....when the conventional wisdom believes the computer is making us a nation of isolated introverts....communicating more, but doing it anonymously...your site reminds us - we are in this together, a family of humanity - under a loving God. I'm proud of you - and wanted to tell you so."
Dan H. --- North Carolina

"I have just re-read some of the messages of appreciation on the 'Motivational Moments' website. Could I perhaps add that I regard 'motivational moments' as being one of the most benevolent, personal and good-spirited sites on the Web, and congratulate you for your work on it? You truly act as an example to us all in what you do."
Richard Chorley --- Amsterdam
"I think this site is the greatest. It is inspiring and uplifting. I give one quote each day to my students and they have to interpret itand/or tell what it means to them. Students compete against one another to see who has interpreted the quote the best. They enjoy the challenge. Keep up the good work!! I love it!"
Bonnie --- Mississippi

"I use to visit your site every day, and made a few submissions back in late 98. My life went through many changes, but I was sitting at my computer tonight, and I thought of all the encouragement I used to find in your site. So, I have found the warm words you share once again. I just wanted to thank you, again, for maintaining this site, and for the smile I have rediscovered."

"Completely fascinated by the site. This is truly the best site I've come across. It's just amazing how the quotes are so very well segregated and organized in such a beautiful fashion. It also has a very good presentation style and will go a long way in proving that it's the best site around, as far as the quote collection and display is concerned.
Moreover, the participation by other fellow people is just unbelievable. It's great to come across such people who by their experience and knowledge are trying to inspire other people in living life to the fullest and thus sharing their genius.
Hats off to the people who are involved with this site. All the best & keep it up."
Ayushman Saha --- India
"I have just recently found your site and was inspired by what I saw. I marked it as one of my favorite spots and go back to it frequently. I share some of the inspirational thoughts with people at work. I was greatly inspired by the thoughtful paper about the older man who was bed ridden and talked with God everyday. Just to be able to sleep away in God's lap how peaceful. May God continue to bless and keep you."

"I wanted to thank you for making this page. I visit it weekly. I just discovered it a couple of months ago and I try to come on and catch up on all the pages I missed from previous months and years. I searched the Internet for months for good quotes pages, but none of them had what I was really looking for. Then by luck, this page showed up. A lot of the quotes on your page have put in words exactly what I feel, when I thought there were no words for it. So, thank you for making this page and updating it with great quotes."
Breanna, Age 15

"I have so enjoyed reading from your site. I am a new Human Resource Officer in a Bank and I have started posting "A thought for the day". I have had the best time doing this. I have used several from your site and I do thank you for the motivational quotes! In my job, it has been such a pleasure seeing what a small gesture on a board can turn out to be a huge difference in someone's life for that particular day. Positive words really do make a difference.
I have a quote for you that I used my very first day on the job. "Sprinkle smiles along your way"
This was such a huge success, that I have continued. I am going on my 4th month with a quote everyday. Several other departments have also started their own quote of the day. So I know I shall be visiting your site often! Keep up the good work!!!"

" It's a pleasure to help out. Believe me, I know the power of reading some good quotes and/or poems. They can really change your perspective, make you want to do things better. Teens don't have the easiest time, you know that. Society has played teens up to be this bad, trouble-making team, which is obviously not true. Although a few may go bad, that doesn't mean that the rest of us will follow in their steps. I think that society should give us more credit than ever at this time. It's not easy to put up with all this craziness and remain sane. If I find anything new and exciting I'll send it to you. Have a great year! "
Kimberly S. --- Florida

I think teens have more in their hearts than most adults. Thank-You."
