Quotes

I collect quotes from random conversations, whether or not I am a part of that conversation.
Some of the major players are:
Ken – my dad
Mo – my mom
Maggie and Emily – my nieces (at varying ages in terms of the quote timeline)
Friends/Coworkers – Josh, Jessica B, Jessica J, Xena, Chris, Christine, Queen B, Steve
