Choose your inspirational quotes carefully


Put an Ayn Rand inspirational quote with an image of Darth Vader losing his patience (in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope) and suddenly, it's not so much inspiring as scary.... Photo: Lucasfilm Ltd

In my nonstop surfing of that thing called the Internet, I stumbled into the inspirational quote realm and became somewhat drawn into the trap of reading them nonstop; they’re short enough to either be inspired or disappointed but they’re always quick to consume – so they are like a bag of chips, you start eating one and end up demolishing the whole bag.

Though I haven’t consumed all the inspirational quotes on the Internet. Yet.
