People always want to write tweets that will get reweeted. Writing the perfect tweet is both an art and a science with plenty of research pointing out what works and what doesn’t. However, when people are new on Twitter, they seem to just want me to give them a packet of quotes that will get retweeted so they don’t have to put in the work themselves. Honestly, you are more likely to be retweeted with your original content, but if you are not creative or don’t have time to think of pithy one-liners, borrowing someone else’s quotes can be helpful. So, below I have included some quotes that have been retweeted a lot.

10 Quotes for Getting Retweeted

  • ‎”Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it.” – Helen Keller
  • “No one has ever become poor by giving.” – Anne Frank
  • “The best way to be an outstanding leader is to learn something, do it and then teach others.” – @ryancvet
  • “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal.” – Thomas Jefferson
  • “Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness.” – Seneca
  • “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” – Oscar Wilde
  • “Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.” – Warren G. Bennis
  • “You’ve got to dream! Dreams are just realities in rehearsal. Who is to say that those dreams can’t come true?” – @ryancvet
  • “Don’t be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • “A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.” – Winston Churchill

Obviously these 10 quotes are not guaranteed to get you retweets, but they’ve worked well for me! Good luck using those quotes to get retweeted!
