- Love for All
After losing the one I loved, I was surprised to find that I had not lost any of the love. They taught me to love, and I am fortunate enough to have kept that after they left. Now I have this incredible amount of love in my heart that I can give to anyone. I don't know who I will give it to, but I fear for them, because they may drown in it.

- A Quote to No One
I think you are wonderful. You remind me of myself, but not in any categorical way. In fact, we could not be any more different. You remind me of myself because I see the same humanity in you that I see in myself. I don't believe in soul mates, but I do believe that some people connect at the deepest level of their being. I believe that is the case with us. It might not be, but it is worth figuring that out, right?
Curtis Baldwin
- A Strange Hope
I have nothing to be hopeful for, but I am still hopeful. Given the circumstances of my life, a rational person in my position would feel dread, yet I am still hopeful. I don't know why this is, and I don't care to find out. I am just going to appreciate it while it's here.

- Quotes That Don't Suck
If you want to write a good quote, tell me how you feel. I'd rather read through a mountain of poorly written, heartfelt quotes than one more quote from Grey's Anatomy. Please, just let me read about your pain, your happiness, or anything other than those drab quotes.
Abigail Adams
- Remember the Ladies
I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands.
Curtis Baldwin
- Writing
I write to think and I think to write. The more I think, the more I write; the more I write, the more I read; the more I read, the more I think. It is beautiful, isn't it?
Curtis Baldwin
- Criticism
People often criticize others. This always confused me, as I didn't understand how anyone could think themselves righteous enough to criticize others. It then occurred to me that I was thinking too logically. No one criticizes others. They simply criticize other people that they can liken to the parts of themselves that they don't like.

- Down the Rabbit Hole
One day I wondered how fast I could type. Next thing I know, I'm buying a used mechanical keyboard and complaining about the accuracy measure of certain typing websites.
Curtis Baldwin
- The Lost Quote
I saw a quote on here that I really liked, but I cannot find it again. Someone was saying that the people who are the loudest about things are often the ones that don't fully believe it themselves. I hope this quote comes to me again. If any of you know this quote, it would be very kind of you to comment it on my profile. Thanks.
Curtis Baldwin
- Compliments
Unconditional compliments are the best kind of compliments. I like it when someone says I look good today, but I love it when they just say I look good.
Curtis Baldwin
- Alphabetical
I love and hate the word alphabetical. It just dances around the outsides of the keyboard using nearly every finger on your hands if you are one of the people that types the way they taught you in elementary school.
Curtis Baldwin
- Therapy
Going to therapy is like looking in a mirror. It is not magic, it simply shows a reflection. I pity the person who does not own a mirror. They cannot see their blemishes; more importantly, they cannot see their own beauty.
Curtis Baldwin
- Cows
I live in a land of fields and farms. One day, while driving past the fields, I looked out and I saw a cow and I thought to myself. What a good day it would be if I were a cow.
Curtis Baldwin
- The Little Things
Worry about the little things. If you don't worry about the little things, you'll be left with only big things to worry about and then you'll be filled with inescapable dread. I prefer to worry about what I should have for lunch instead of the eternal state of war in the world.
Curtis Baldwin
- Goals
From a very early age in life, I swore that I would never let anyone keep me from reaching my goals or becoming the person I wanted to be. I kept that promise to myself until I became the person that was getting in my way.
Curtis Baldwin
- Bias
I have come to realize that the most unbiased person in any situation is the most biased person. You can always trust a biased person to be biased in the exact way you know they will be. An unbiased person can never be truly impartial and will always try to sneak their own opinion into matters.

- Life
I have recently thought about dying. I thought I might be better off if I spared myself from the pain of life. Then I remembered that I have written many many quotes on here, and some of them have gotten a four star rating. That means they made some people happy, and if I was dead, I could never make anyone happy again, including myself.
Curtis Baldwin
- First dates
The only rule I have in my life is to never be anything but friendly on a first date. I won't even hold someone's hand. Just imagine - you go on a date with a person that you really like and it is followed by a night of passion. It sparks a beautiful relationship and you introduce them to your parents, only for your parents to ask why you have asked them to meet your third cousin.

- Typing Practice
I have done one and a half thousand of these typing tests. I did some sampling and the average number of words per quote is 50. That means I could have typed a novel or two in the time I have been practicing.
Curtis Baldwin
- Be Yourself
I always thought that people who tell you to be yourself were just pretending that they knew something about life. Then I realized that I'm the only person that I have to live with until I die, so I better be someone that I can live with for the next fifty years. That's pretty scary.
