Who doesn't love a good quote? Whether they come from our favorite books, catchy songs or from life-changing movies, a good quote tends to stick in your head for a while. A great quote tends to be one you find yourself repeating out loud and spreading it around amongst friends and family. And an inspirational quote is one you use to change your life. It will change your outlook on life and the way you might see yourself. You can always Google the words: 'inspirational quotes' and be presented with hundreds of hits, but no one wants to go through so many sites looking for the perfect quote, so here's an easier and better idea.
Momentum is a Google Chrome extension that I discovered a couple months ago and it is the best thing ever. Every time you open a new tab, instead of seeing the bland, white Google page, you get a daily inspirational photo and quote of the day. It's customized to your name and even greets you with the time and a little "Good morning (your name), what is the main focus for today? You can make a to-do list right there in the tab and check them when you're done. You can add your favorite links in the upper left corner and just click on them instead of having to type them out. You get the temperature on the upper right corner. The quotes and the beautiful images from all over the world are my favorite part about the whole thing. You can even save your favorite quotes to a collection and review them over the time, whenever you're feeling down and need a pick-me-up, which is exactly what I've done.
Here are twenty-five of my favorite quotes taken from Momentum over the past month.
