QUOTE: You have a lovely soul

You have a lovely soul, of a rare quality, an artist’s nature, don’t ever let it go without what it needs.

— Marcel Proust

QUOTE: Faith

If you want to believe in something, believe in miracles, and you will be more comfortable in your sorrow. 
If you are tired and death seems like the only thought that runs in your mind, believe in miracles and breathing will feel less than fading. 
If you can’t see any point in waking up because your whole existence feels like a mess, believe in miracles and the rest of your sunrises will be less depressing. 
Faith gives birth to hope in times when you are least expecting it.

— Juansen Dizon, Faith

QUOTE+GIF - Oh, it's truth you want ?

Oh, It’s truth you want? Be careful, my lady. Tyrion says that people often claim to hunger for the truth, but seldom like the taste when it’s served up.”
- George R.R. Martin



QUOTE: You can have anything you want

You can have anything you want, if you give up the belief that you can’t have it.
- Bashar

QUOTE: Soon, you'll be ashes or bones

Soon, you’ll be ashes or bones. A mere name at most—and even that is just a sound, an echo. The things we want in life are empty, stale, trivial.

 Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

QUOTE: Keep your eyes wide open

Closing your eyes isn’t going to change anything. Nothing’s going to disappear just because you can’t see what’s going on. In fact, things will even be worse the next time you open your eyes. That’s the kind of world we live in. 
Keep your eyes wide open. Only a coward closes his eyes. Closing your eyes and plugging up your ears won’t make time stand still.

---Haruki Murakami

You know what? You’re an individual, and that makes people nervous. And it’s gonna keep making people nervous for the rest of your life.

 Louise Fitzhugh

QUOTE: Confidence is priceless

Confidence is priceless. To look in the mirror and feel happy about your existence, to feel good about who you are. I pray that you feel that.

---Unknown

QUOTE: Students who acquire large debts

Students who acquire large debts putting themselves through school are unlikely to think about changing society. When you trap people in a system of debt, they can’t afford the time to think.

QUOTE: To believe you must hide parts of you - very cool quote

To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.
 
Marc Hack

QUOTE: Do things that scare you

Do the things that scare you until nothing does. Do it every day. No matter how big, no matter how small. Talk to that cute person. Ask for that job. Do it until you gain momentum and life becomes exciting. Know that you are capable of so much more than you know.
 T. Wuggles

QUOTE: Soul mates - some people go through life

Some people go through life searching and never find their soul mates. They never do. You and I did, we just happened to have them for a shorter period of time than we hoped for. It’s sad, but it’s life.
 Cecelia Ahern

QUOTE: Some people think only intellect counts

Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it. But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion, and empathy.
— Dean Koontz 

QUOTE: I'm fighting myself, I know I am

I’m fighting myself. I know I am. One minute I want to remember. The next minute I want to live in the land of forgetting. One minute I want to feel. The next minute I never want to feel ever again.
— Benjamin Alire Sáenz

QUOTE: Love the animals, love the plants, love everything

Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love.

 Fyodor Dostoyevsky

QUOTE: The first gulp from the glass

The first gulp from the glass of natural sciences will turn you into an atheist, but at the bottom of the glass God is waiting for you.

QUOTE: Difference between crying and weeping

Weeping is not the same thing as crying, It takes your whole body to weep, and when it’s over, you feel like you don’t have any bones left to hold you up.
 Sarah Ockler

QUOTE: Every day is a new 24 hours

Each day means a new twenty-four hours. Each day means everything’s possible again. You live in the moment, you die in the moment. 
You take it all one day at a time.
— Marie Lu

QUOTE: When someone is going through a storm

When someone is going through a storm, your silent presence is more powerful than a million, empty words.
 Thema Davis

QUOTE: I am that I am

Layer by layer I removed all that I thought I was, all that I thought I had to be and in the moment I was left standing naked and vulnerable without identities and labels, I remembered, I am that I am.
— Lenita Vangellis

QUOTE: We do not believe in ourselves until

We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.
— E.E. Cummings
