There is nothing I love more than an inspirational quote. A great quote can really pump you up for the day. A great unique dorm decor idea is to find your favorite inspirational quotes, and scatter them around your room. There are so many kinds of quotes that you can choose from. If you need encouragement for exercising, then try a quote by Jillian Michaels. If you need a quote about perseverance, then try a quote by Einstein.
