Thank you, fayerody, for these gems of wisdom. I love wise sayings; I have saved several hundred. Many are in my book but I find it difficult to find just the right saying for someone I'm trying to help.

I wish someone would organize the sayings we can collect by topics or content or subjects or problems. I know fayerody and others on this site have lots of sayings. I may have gathered over 1000 but it is hard to quickly find the right gem out of hundreds randomly arranged good sayings. So their value is lost. Once we got wise sayings organized by usable topics or contents, I'll bet drjohn could find a way to make them available to everyone on PsychCentral or I could them on Psychological Self-Help. Anyone interested in editing and organizing? A good place to start would be with a review of other book of quotes in the self-help or self-understanding area.

It would be a way to share self-help ideas and a way to make a name for yourself for years...or decades...or a lifetime. If the sources were cited for each quote, maybe we wouldn't have trouble with Copyright Laws--what do you think?
