• "There is never a time or place for true love. it happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment." -Sarah Dessen (The Truth About Forever)
  • "Life doesn't rhyme. Still, life is poetry, not math. All the world's a stage, but the stage is a meditation mat. You tilt your head back, you breathe. When your heart is broken, you plant seeds in the cracks and you pray for rain. And you teach your sons and daughters there are sharks in the water, but the only way to survive is to breathe deep and dive." -Dive (poem) by Andrea Gibson
  • When you're passionate about something, you put everything you got into it.
  • "There is a tide in the affairs of men. Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat, and we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures." -Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar'
  • "If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?" -Alice In Wonderland
  • "Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: 'It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to.'"- Jim Jarmusch
  • "Sometimes I think that we waste our words and we waste our moments and we don't take the time to say the things we have in our hearts when we have the chance."
  • "Be silly. Be honest. Be kind." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • "Artists make things that people don't need."
  • "Nothing great has been and nothing great can be accomplished without passion." -G.W.F. Hegel
  • "Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back; a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country." -Anais Nin
