Quotes can fall into many categories by topic, author or type of author. Quotes that are categorized by topic have only 40 types of different topics. If we talk about quotes categorized into author's or type of author's there are to many. People can write quotes about pretty much everything that we can think of. There are quotes about time, war, humor, and imagination only to name a few.
An example of a quote about time is by William Penn,"Time is what we want, but what we use worst." Another type of quote is about war which is,"If it's natural to kill, how come men have to go into training to learn how?" by Joan Baez. Many of these quotes make you think and to me these quotes I just specifically stated are true and sad. A lot and I would say pretty much all quotes that we see and hear have different types of emotion in them which I would say it is the reason why some are really appealing to us.
An example of a humorous quote is,"Humor brings insight and tolerance. Irony brings a deeper and less friendly understanding," by Agnes Reppepplier. An example of and imagination quote is, "There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds," by Gilbert K. Chesterton. Quotes in different topics can make you feel down and other up and relaxed. For example, the qoute is the previous paragraph are more down than the quotes above which make you feel better.Quotes are many things and that to me it is amazing because I never knew that before and now I know what quotes can do.

What are Quotes?
Quotes are phrases that can be interpret in many different ways to many people. I've been speaking of familiar quotes that we've may of heard of and what those quotes mean to me. In really I don't know what a quote can mean to another person that isn't me. We all have different perspectives of things and especially when it comes to quotes. A quote can be the same, but it can mean something good for one person and something bad for another.
One quote is "What really matters is what you do with what you have" by H.G Wells. It all depends on what you understand from the quote. For example, to me it could be saying that what am I going to do with my life. All the things that I am going or have in life what am I going to do with that for my future.
Quotes can be confusing which is maybe one of the reasons we have very different views about them. If you pay close attention to what it is saying you can be asking yourself questions. For example, in the quote above what can they be talking about with saying "what you have". It can be your cell phone, your pet, or your education. This is something I ask myself, but you tell me what does it mean to you?

Quotes
Cool Quotes are not only considered to be positive. There are cool quotes that help people become a better person, take action, and makes a person see things in a different way. There are many quotes out there that we rarelly hear of and are said by people that really believed in what those quotes meant to them. These people did not only write these quotes for themselves, but also for the audience that reads them and it has a meaning to them.
One of these quotes is by Mahatma Gandi that stated,"Action expresses priorities." To me this means that a person has the right to do what he or she wants to do without an explanation. Gandhi was leader that fought for the independence of India. He did many things through action that made him free India. For example, Indians couldn't walk around in the streets without a ticket. Gandhi disagreed with that law and he gather people where he started burning those tickets. Gandhi was badly beaten for that, but that did not stop him from freeing India.
Cool quotes makes a person see that they can't give up if a person is in a bad or good situation. If a person is in a bad situation they can achieve and if they are in a good situation they can achieve even more. There are millions and millions of quotes out there and not all belong in the same topic. If any one has any suggestions of quotes tell me so that I can get ideas of what are some of the other quotes out there. Cool quotes are different things to different people.
