TQ 16 Save-ology

On this episode we focus on the quotes of money-saving guru Suze Orman. We recently went to listen to her and we feel we gained much that could be helpful to others.

TQ 15 Stewardship

This episode celebrates quotes from Pope John Paul II, who was an enduring head of the Roman Catholic Church. Through his life example, and his beautiful words of encouragement, we receive a blessing of duty and salvation to be a steward to our fellow men and women. Being a steward is not just in the holy sense, but also in using your God given talents to express yourself, and in helping others realize their true potential. What are you doing to be a steward? Enjoy the episode and thanks for lis...

TQ 14 Francis

When everything old is new again, you would think we would have nothing left to say. Wrong! Just because the subject of this week's podcast died almost 900 years ago, it doesn't mean he has nothing to say to us today. Thanks to the new Pope for reminding us that Saint Francis of Assisi was a man ahead of his time. If you have ever seen a Nativity scene or worried about peace in the Middle East, this episode is for you. With all that in mind, we hope you enjoy this episode, inspired by Pope Franc...

TQ 12 Romantilicious

Romance is in the air and so are quotes! If you are looking for an unusual way to say, "I love you", why not follow the examples of Clark Gable, Harrison Ford, Patrick Swayze, and others? After all, no one is more romantic than Sylvester Stallone. SavageTechman and PalacePrincess Ed and Cheryl 2-12-13

TQ 10 MLK

On the celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s 84th birthday and upcoming observance of the day celebrating his historic life, we wanted to discuss some of his best quotes, as well as a few lesser known quotes. We know you will enjoy this member of "The Quotables Hall of Fame" as well as an example of the great American MLK was to so many, and the power of influence his words and actions have on our country, as well as his relevance today. Also we feature "Tammy" one of our Facebook friends and...

TQ 9 Moonwalking

One small segment for us, one giant episode for you. Of course, that's not completely accurate and neither is the quote attributed to the first man to walk on the moon. Does it matter what Neil Armstrong really said, or when he decided to say it? For that matter, what difference does it make if you eat rice or bacon for breakfast? Only The Quotables would bring you an episode that explores both of these earth-shattering topics. Bon appetit, SavageTechman 1-8-13...

TQ 8 Newtown

Although we cannot make sense of the terrible violence that ended so many young lives in Newtown, Connecticut on December 14, 2012, we can draw upon the long tradition of using quotations to mourn together, to seek comfort, and to offer condolence. Peace be with you all.

TQ 6 Yodatations

Cheryl quizzes Ed on Star Wars quotes especially focusing on quotes by Jedi Master Yoda. This fun episode includes Ed being stumped on a quote, "oh dear" as C-3PO would say. As Yoda would say, "listen you must, yes"! Ed and Cheryl SavageTechman and PalacePrincess 12-4-12

TQ 5 Ew-logy

Ed and Cheryl offer this episode in loving tribute to American actor Larry Hagman, best known for his portrayal of J.R. Ewing on the show, "Dallas". His character not only offered up some of the nastiest insults on television but his attempted murder spawned and entire industy for merchandisers and for spoofsters that is still going strong 30 years later. On another segment of Ed-ymology we pose the question: Can you guess what eulogies have in common with Christmas? Of course, only Ed knows! Ed...

TQ 4 Emancipation

Ed and Cheryl return with another great episode! We present, Abraham Lincoln, as our first inductee into our Quotables Hall of Fame. Lincoln was a great President and man who changed the course of politics as well as life in this country. Though he felt history might not remember him, he gave us many great quotes, through all his oratory. Listen as we discuss his famous quotes. Also, we celebrate Thanksgiving with more famous quotes from days gone by, as we reflect of the blessings ourselves and...
