Monday Motivation, Pre-Internet Style

A Selection of 10 Old, Inspiring, Quotes

One of the the best illustrations of the power of words is the fact that a single quote can actually cause you to take action: to get up out of your chair, to run farther, to do an extra rep, to burn the midnight oil, all in service of a goal. And clearly there is an appetite for motivational quotes: as of the writing of this post, there are 32,088,830 posts on Instagram with the hashtag #MondayMotivation.
