Quote Of The Day Challenge: Day 3

Welcome to the third and final day of the 'Quote Of The Day Challenge'. For today's quote I looked at a little book I'm compiling based on the movie Finding Nemo. I titled the project 'The Wisdom Of Dory'. Now I could've taken the easy way out and used Dory's catchphrase for this post. But I chose a different quote instead.  It was one of the first lines spoken by Dory in the movie. Not only does it sum up Dory's character, but when used sincerely it's the most basic expression of comfort and caring.

"There, there, it's alright. It'll be ok."
~Dory, Finding Nemo (2003)

For anyone who's going through a hard time right now, know that I truly believe things will get better eventually. For anyone who feels like nobody cares, know that I do.

For my last three nominees, I've chosen the following bloggers.

The Dorky Doll Collector at The Dorky Doll Collector's Toy Box

Talolili and RagingMoon1987 at Confessions Of A Dolly Lover

Rapunzel at Rapunzel's Ramblings: Life In 12"

Thank you for joining me for this challenge. Hopefully my dolls will have some real posts up soon.

Quote Of The Day Challenge: Day 2

Welcome to the second day of the 'Quote Of The Day Challenge'. Today's quote was selected from a book I'm compiling of comic book movie quotes. I haven't come up with a snazzy title yet. The working title is 'On Screen Comic Book Wisdom'. Since the book is for my personal use, I guess it really doesn't matter what I call it. But I would still like a catchy title for it. Let me know in the comments if you have any ideas.

Anyway, this quote has been overused in popular culture, but that doesn't make it any less true.

"With great power comes great responsibility."
~Cliff Robertson as Uncle Ben Parker, Spider-Man (2002)

My nominees for today are:

Muff at Hey, It's Muff

Phyllis at A Day In The Life Of My Dolls

Snow at Through The Eyes Of A 12" Girl

Tune in tomorrow for the third and final day of the challenge.

Nominated For The 'Quote Of The Day Challenge'

Hello friends and visitors.  This is Treesa.

MyLittleMegara, at the blog In A World Of My Own, has nominated me for the Quote Of The Day Challenge. According to MyLittleMegara's blog post, these are the rules. I have to post one quote a day for three days, and each day I have to nominate three bloggers to take on the challenge.

I had never heard of the Quote Of The Day Challenge before, so I was rather unprepared for MyLittleMegara's nomination. Luckily I'm a scrapbooker/papercrafter, so I happened to be in the process of personally compiling several quote books on various subjects.  This first quote was selected from my Disney themed quote book, which I titled 'Wisdom From The Kingdom'. (As in Disney's Magic Kingdom, get it?)

As I sorted through the various Disney quotes that I had collected, I tried to find one whose message would apply to the largest possible audience.  This is the quote I chose.

"There's room for everyone in this world"
~Nora, Pete's Dragon (1977)

Since the remake of Pete's Dragon has been announced, I thought this quote would be doubly appropriate.

Now, on to my nominees. Below are the three bloggers I nominated, and the reasons why.

Hannah at Never Grow Up
Hannah is an aspiring writer, and most writers are also avid readers, so I'm sure she's come across some great quotes that have made an impact on her life.

DorrieBelle at DorrieBelle's Doll Diaries
I'm not sure if DorrieBelle will be interested in participating. She's been rather quiet on her blog lately and might be having health problems again. But she always gives a unique perspective and isn't afraid to speak her mind.

Queen Elsa at A Doll's Life For Me
I thought it would be neat to get a doll's perspective on the challenge, and most of the other dolls whose blogs I follow don't seem to be actively blogging right now, though I may try nominating them later.

I'll see you again for the next day of the challenge.
