Quotes to paint!

Being an English graduate, I'm a words person. I have been pinning quotes to paint for the empty walls of my house. 
This is for the kitchen. I mean a grad student lives off of coffee and wine. This is perfect for what the kitchen actually gets used for. 
Colors: Red and Brown?
 This is a great reminder while looking in the mirror every morning. Even when I stayed up all night writing lesson plans and research papers, I have a lot to be proud of and I have to remember not to let myself settle for less than my best. No matter what, fake it 'til I make it. 
Colors: Blue and Brown with gold
 This is a great quote for the living room/den. I am too open with my heart; it stays on my sleeve and sometimes I have to remember to guard my heart, God's heart.
 I mean, come on. It's a quote from Friday Night Lights that the Romney's used before rallies and events during the campaign. It's a reminder of what is really important. Not winning or losing, but having a winning attitude.
 This is another great reminder to myself, from Shakespeare. This would go in my room. I feel weak and frail and incapable sometimes because I am not only human, but I'm very petite. It isn't the size of the person, it's their wit and their will that get the job done!
Colors: blue and gold
 Ah, Mumford and Sons. This is such a reminder of the future, and the person God has for me. I thought I had found love but it wasn't what He had in mind. I just love this quote.
 Again, Mumford is just on point.
 This is good for the study, I think. Yes, being adorable is always a plus; but, ladies, don't forget to enrich your mind and have great experiences.
