About

David has been sending a quote-of-the-day text to family, friends, and colleagues every single morning since 2007. Nobody asked him to. Nobody's stopped him.
What started as a daily nudge to his two kids somehow grew into a morning ritual for a small army of people who didn't know they needed it — until they did. Philosophers, coaches, comedians, and the occasional TV character have all made the cut. So have a few thoughts of his own.
DM's 2025 Book of Quotes is his first book. It collects all 365 quotes from the year — one for every day — because at some point, a text thread stops being a habit and starts being something worth holding onto.
He lives in Ohio. He bleeds scarlet and gray. And yes, the texts still go out every morning.
