Each Thursday I share the most RT’d quote(s) from the blogs twitter account over the previous week. Last week there was a tie for the quote with the most RT’s between:

“If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said “faster horses”.”

and

“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.”

Unusually there was also a 5-way tie for the quote with the next highest amount of RT’s between:

“When you’re curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.”

Many thanks to everyone who shared the quotes above and the other quotes from last week. I know that there are various aspects that can influence if a quote attracts your attention – if you saw the tweet, personal style, if it speaks to something happening in your life at that moment etc.

(For those of you as geeky as I am and wondering what tool I’m using to measure individual RT’s this week I’ve been playing with www.twitonomy.com)
