Hello š Iām Craig Constantine.
A long long time ago I began collecting inspirational quotes and aphorisms. I kept them on the first version of my web site, where they were displayed randomly. But as time went on, I realized I wanted them where I would see them. Eventually I copied the fledgeling collection onto 3Ć5 cards and put them in a small box. As I find new ones, I add cards. Today, there are more than 1,400 quotes and the collection continues to grow.
My mission is creating better conversations to spread understanding and compassion. I want us to go from simply having conversations, to actively creating better conversations. You can learn more about me and all my projects at,Ā https://craigconstantine.com.
