title: The Little Book of Big Quotes: Volume I (Volume 1)
author:  Carlos Salinas 
description: If you are a new reader or have been following me since I started publishing my writing way back in the fall of 2012, I am happy and grateful that you are here. I always wanted to write. I remember reading great stories in all sorts of books and my imagination went off on tangents for my own creations. I also remember very interesting stories that I would hear people tell. We are all natural story-lovers, especially when there is a personal connection with the story teller, a character, or element in the story. I wanted to write stories. My purpose for writing is to spread a positive, hopeful, inspirational, motivational, and insightful message through words. In stories, quotes, and rhymes. At times when looking for new books, I couldn't find the books with the message that seemed so clear to me: about love, knowledge, truth, perspective, and clear thinking. I remembered reading somewhere that if you can't find the book your looking for, you should write it. So I did. The feedback I have received for my writing has ranged from: "I have always felt that...but was afraid to say it or couldn't put it into words," to "It made me think, and I don't agree with it but it really made me think." That was my goal all along. To help people discover themselves, their beliefs, and their voices.
