Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of quotes are on the "Great" page?
A collection tied together by a search for "great" things — a lifelong pursuit of some great mystery, memories of great things discovered while living in Paris, a college course on 18th-century writer Samuel Johnson taught by a professor named Walter Jackson Bate, and a proud, honest reflection on having "some great, some not so great" experiences as an American.
Are these quotes about achievement or about experience?
More about experience and discovery than formal achievement — finding cheap CD collections in Paris or an inspiring college class both count as "great" moments in a personal sense. For quotes more focused on accomplishment, see Great Achievement.
Is there a quote here about identity and pride?
Yes — the line "I'm proud to be an American. I'm proud to be an African American in America... I love it here" is a strong, honest statement about identity that also acknowledges mixed experiences.
What if I want quotes about excellence specifically?
Excellence is the better page for that — the quotes here are more about meaningful moments than about excelling at something.
Is there a version of "Great" that's more triumphant?
For something with more of a victorious, celebratory tone, try Glory quotes, or Good quotes for something a bit more everyday.
