Have you ever read a really motivating quote or saying that someone you know or someone famous has said? I know I have, and some have really given me the push I needed to get out and do something. Whether it be going to the gym, cooking a really good healthy meal or even starting a diet. I thought, seeing as these quotes have made such an impact on me, maybe some one else might find them useful too. So, here are some really great quotes that you may find inspiring, motivating, or just generally happy with your life if you were feeling doubtful.

I hope you find these as useful as I did.
