Some Quotes

Small word, wide range of thought.

If you're also drawn to broader affirmations, the Good quotes collection covers similar ground from another angle.

Why are these particular quotes grouped together?
They're grouped simply because each one includes the word "some" somewhere in the line - whether it's "some of the disputed terrain," "some interesting movies," "some people," or "some Harvard MD/PhD students."
