Welcome to the Virtual Home of the Virtual Person - Larry Linux
I have always been inspired by the
words of others. The more I write, the more I seem to be moved
by powerful quotes. These quotes, as you will see below, come from a
vast cross-section of humanity. I also love music and
will occasionally "quote" artists from their lyrics.
Powerful
Quotes are not always words we agree with, but often words that enrage
us!
