For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."

Welcome to the new site of Quote of the Day. Since 2005, I select and post a quote nearly every single day (time permitting, now that I'm in school). Sources range from songs, movies, well-known public figures, as well as lovely witticisms from my friends and family. Archives are still located here. AE
