"What we play is life."
Louis Armstrong
"He who is brave is free."
Seneca
"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds."
Albert Einstein
"The more you know about the unknown the more you actually understand how little you know. It makes you humble and brings you back to the world of wonders, miracles, and magic."
Thomas Herold
"Everybody has difficult years, but a lot of times the difficult years end up being the greatest years of your whole entire life, if you survive them."
Brittany Murphy
"Communication. It’s the first thing we really learn in life. Funny thing is, once we grow up, learn our words and really start talking the harder it becomes to know what to say. Or how to ask for what we really need."
Greys Anatomy
"Optimist: someone who isn’t sure whether life is a tragedy or a comedy but is tickled silly just to be in the play."
Robert Brault
"If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work. The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavorable. Favorable conditions never come."
C.S. Lewis
"The answer is never the answer. What’s really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you’ll always be seeking. I’ve never seen anybody really find the answer — they think they have, so they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer."
Ken Kesey
"Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent"
Victor Hugo
"Do what you feel in your heart to be right – for you’ll be criticized anyway."
Eleanor Roosevelt
"Happiness is a warm puppy."
Charles M. Schulz
"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
Neil Gaiman
“When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on earth. So what the hell,leap."
Cynthis Heimel
"The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives."
Annie Dillard, The Writing Life
"Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That’s life. The confusion and fear? That’s there to remind you that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for."
One Tree Hill
"Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood."
from “Self-Reliance” by Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Living well is the best revenge."
George Herbert
"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”
-Buddha
"I have learned, that there is still so much to learn.That life has its way of focusing on the blurs that come with youth.That good things can go bad.And all bad things can lead to something good."
Jorge Daumy
"I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls."
Audrey Hepburn
