Inspirational Quotes

One of our applications at work give us inspirational quotes every day to motivate us. Unfortunately, some of them annoy the hell out of me.

For example: One morning, I was in a really good mood. Then I read this:

"Don't follow the crowd. take the path less traveled by, and that will make the difference."

First of all, when you just watched Catacombs the night before, you wouldn't want to start the following day with a quote saying take the path less traveled because you might end up lost in a 200-mile labyrinth and end up killing everyone in the movie including your favorite rockstar Pink!

Second, you don't tell an employee to take her own path and then promote teamwork. That doesn't make sense.

Third, the last time I took the path less traveled (do something the boss specifically said not to do), I ended up getting in trouble. Why post this quote if you can't get away with insubordination?

Fourth, I've been taking the path less traveled my whole life and all I get is people telling me I am weird. That's not the difference I want.

Fifth, I can go on and on about choosing my own path and its consequences and end up not making any sense. The purpose of this rant is:

Most people are inspired by inspirational quotes. I choose to take the path less traveled. I'm gonna be annoyed instead.
