2. Try Prompt Box
   Hi Aileen,
   I have actually just been doing this very thing. Why not try promptbox.co.uk, you can have a seven day trial period and they have quite a selection of quotes that could be used on a number of different courses.
   Try this one for size:
   “What we think or what we know or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only consequence is what we do.”
   Or:
   “Leadership is like driving a bus….if you do not take people to where they want to go, they get off.”

   Hope this helps.

   Kind regards,

   Emily
