Rach Smith's Notes & Nuggets

I need your quotes

note : creativity / lettering Added May 24, 2024

This is day and post 24 of the #WeblogPoMo2024 challenge. I think I'm going to make it to the end of the month with a note for every day!1

This breeds confidence for a new [[Creativity sprints|creativity sprint]]/challenge for next month. I will be hand lettering one word or phrase every day for the month. Maybe on physical paper some days but mostly on the iPad Pro.

So, I need some quotes and phrases to letter! Do you have any favourite quotes? They could be from historical figures, literature, fictional characters, religious texts... anything. Feel free to leave a comment or email/mention me with your suggestions!

    "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair" Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
