- Expectations are resentments waiting to happen.
- There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.” ― Ernest Hemingway
- Our lives are shaped not just by our experiences, but by relationships. Who we love. Who loves us. And the stronger those ties are, the less awful everything else seems. - 9-1-1 Season 2 Ep 5
- "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson
- The hardest thing is loving someone and then having the courage to let them love you back. -The Wedding Date
- Like a small boat on the ocean, sending big waves into motion. Like how a single word can make a heart open. I might only have one match but I can make an explosion. I've still got a lot of fight in me. -Rachel Platten
- Wish it, Dream it, Do it
- Time you enjoyed wasting, is not time wasted
- Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does. - Margaret Atwood, The Penelopiad
- Don’t ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness.
- True love is not a hide and seek game: in true love, both lovers seek each other. -Michael Bassey Johnson
- Be better than the person you were yesterday.
- If you don't like where you are, change it. You are not a tree.
- You begin your journey not knowing where it will take you. You have plans, you have dreams, but every now and again you have to take uncharted roads, face impassable mountains, cross treacherous rivers, be blocked by landslides and earthquakes. That's the way my life has been. -Lee Kuan Yew
