5 years of daily quotes - that's impressive! I enjoy your quotes every day, and hope you'll continue to send them out for many more years to come.

Dear Johan, I feel sorry to unsubscribe myself as i really appreciate your daily quotes. I cannot go online for some days. Will be incommunicado. Sooner i will open a second account for you. More than you know, i will miss your noble service. (Josh - Manila, 2007-06-27)
I just found this website last week, and immediately subscribed to the newsletter. I wanted to say how glad I am that I did. I've only gotten 3 emails so far, but the quotes really do inspire. (Jen, 2006-05-26)

Hello! I just want to thank you for your daily emails. I really appreciate them very much. Merry Christmas and happy New Year!
(Alessia from Italy, 2005-12-23)
Dear Johan, Thank you so much for all those lovely quotes which I find so inspiring and stimulating. It's great to be able to have a picture of the authors as well. I wish you and your family a wonderful and happy Christmas. Best regards. (Charlotte from Paris, France, 2005-12-22)
Hey... thank you for the daily quotes they are inspiring and encouraging. I read and practicalise it, always try to recall and say it to others too. Thank you very much, May God continue to bless you and strengthen you in doing this. Bye for now (Afolabi, 2005-11-24)
I look forward to your daily mail every morning. I really like your selection of quotes and I particularly appreciate receiving a picture of their authors whenever it is available. I have quite a few quote anthologies and dictionaries but none of them provides the pictures of the quotes' authors. It's an excellent concept. (Charlotte, 2004-09-30)
Once again, just wanted to thank you for the great quotes I receive every day...I also like the small personalized note to "have a nice, sunny, relaxing weekend" at the bottom of this one...a very nice touch and much appreciated...I send the same thoughts back to you.
I have passed this on to my friends and support this program...the other thing I like is that your program is so neat and tidy and no "extra" stuff is attached to clutter the mind and my screen.
I enjoy this program very much, thank you, thank you, thank you! (Ireland, 2004-06-26)
Keep up the good work. So, far I`ve enjoyed receiving your uplifting quotes. Thank you very much. I`m sure it will help me fight the "darkness". Dei Gratia. (Cliff, 2006-06-20)
Really don't appreciate the music, u need to program your site so that IF I WANTED TO LISTEN, I could turn it on... thanks (Robert, 2004-04-20)
answer: Thank you for your comments. However, it is the first time after 23,000+ visitors that someone does not like the music. Perhaps you could turn your speakers off ?? I appreciate your reaction and will give it its place on the web site. Regards, Johan
Hi, your inspirational quote yesterday was really more like a motivational quote. And today's quote....well, couldn't you find someone else besides Buddha?? I usually forward your quotes to my family members, however, the last two I really don't feel comfortable forwarding. Thanks. (Carol, 2004-04-08)
answer: Hi Carol ! Well, as it says on the homepage of the web site ... " these quotes will amuse you, perhaps even anger you but will anyway provoke thoughts within you ". That is what they are meant for. Sure, I could find someone else besides Buddha, but I think ... better I am convinced and sure that there is more in today's quote than just the few words. Sometimes I'd like to add my own comments to the quotes, but it would make the newsletter a lot longer, and I'm not the one who has to do the thinking for other people. If you know the teachings of the Buddha, you will know that good and evil are two very relative things. What can be good for you can be very bad for me, and vice versa. As a matter of fact, if there wasn't any evil or bad in the world, how can we know what good is ? The first is the reason for the second just like the second is the reason for the first.
I'm very sorry that you didn't really like the last two quotes. I hope you understand that we have subscribers from different cultures and different religions, and I always try to have some balance between them, which isn't always easy. Anyway, I was very happy to receive your reaction ... it means that people really are thinking about the quotes, and that is what they are meant for.
I wish you, your loved ones and the whole world Peace, Love and Light. Johan
Dear Johan, This is the very first time I have written you and I wish to say that I
really enjoy the daily quotations, so much so, that I write them down in a book so that I can refer back to them. In regards to the picture, please put me down as a "nopics", because I think that the words are so much more important than the picture of the person who said the quotation. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the pictures too but I am more interested in the quotations. (Dennis, 2004-03-29)
I love getting your Daily quotes to my email address, but I miss the pictures of the person quoting! I like to see the person behind them. Is there any way I can get the pictures back ? Thanks again for your wonderful site. (Daina, 2004-03-28)
Thanks for your continuing service and effort and love. The daily inspiring quote is always encouraging me a lot. Although the religion I belong to is different from others. But the words you present us is always true and giving us great support.I can't help saying this: the words without picture is a little lonely. Anyway I would appreciate your consideration and love for the newsletter. I hope your daily happiness. (a Japanese subscriber, Satomi, 2004-03-28)
What a lovely site you have here! I have just subscribed and I am sure I will enjoy the quotations you have selected. I also checked out the penpal pages and have emailed several folks who I hope will become friends. Congratulations on your wonderful work. (Katharine, 2003-12-17)
I like the quote today. Your website has a good balance of great people from the East and the West. Great thoughts are not limited by time and space or language. (May, 2003-11-30)
I'd like to thank you for the wonderful job you do in providing the Daily Inspiring Quotes. I belong to AA and my meetings are at a wonderful place and I share your quotes all the time. There are so many that so suit sobriety and walking through the Steps. So thank you again for such a good job and, when there is a glitch in the system, explaining it. (Jan, 2003-10-10)
Thanks very much for the quote. I really love it, it's so hopeful and it lighted a spark of faith which will help me see my future in another way... Now I will be more confident in every plunge I take and also in the future. Because our fate is not already decided...we can change it. Many thanks and I look forward to receiving more quotes. (Diego, 2003-08-08)
I want to thank you for the nice wise words u send me everyday. Each day I get inspirations for life when I read those. Many many thanks. (Atiya, 2003-05-24)
I have been receiving "Daily Inspiring Quotes" for well over a year. I look forward to it everyday, eagerly, and always come away from the reading with a renewed sense of hope. The quotes enable me to look at myself with a gentle nudge and, I find they cause me to seek understanding and search for the knowledge for understanding of "the other side of the coin!" Johan! You put so much effort into this website! And, it is just plain hard work that you do so! I love the website, so, I want to tell you how very much the site means to me! As I read, daily, about all of the carnage going on around the globe, "Daily Inspiring Quotes" is a way for me to look at my place in the world and realize that I can do something and, indeed, want to do something to better my fellows, indeed help the people who need help who are in front of me! (Melody, 2003-05-17)
This is strange... I've seen lots of quotes in my life. I've spent years and years and years with self-development and meditation and all that. So it's not because everything is new to me... Somehow your choice of quotes is in tune with what we need. (Halina, 2003-05-11)
I love "Daily Inspiring Quotes" and realize it's a lot of work just getting that out every day -a real labor of love! So, once again, thanks very much for that E-card, not to mention the daily work you do for us. (Melody, 2003-04-25)
