- I don’t want you to be waiting, to be sitting there hoping for me to arrive. No, you are so much more than me, you have a life that is full of meaning and beauty. I don’t want you to leave your canvas blank because you think I’ll be the paint, for you are the paint to your own canvas, you are being made into something wonderful. Don’t dream of me, and forget to live your own wonderful life, because I’ll meet you one day, and we’ll have so much to catch up on. One day, you can take me through the museum that is your life, and I will fall in love with all the stories that lay within those walls. So don’t wait for me, because you and I will start a new life when the time is right, but for now, love the story you are in; I know I will. — T.B. LaBerge // Unwritten Letters to You
- It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve known forever don’t see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on. — Nicholas Sparks
- You still have a lot of time to make yourself be what you want. — S.E. Hinton, The Outsiders
- My life, which seems so simple and monotonous, is really a complicated affair of cafés where they like me and cafés where they don’t, streets that are friendly, streets that aren’t, rooms where I might be happy, rooms where I shall never be, looking-glasses I look nice in, looking-glasses I don’t, dresses that will be lucky, dresses that won’t, and so on. — Jean Rhys, Good Morning, Midnight
- I like to see people reunited, maybe that’s a silly thing, but what can I say, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can’t tell fast enough, the ears that aren’t big enough, the eyes that can’t take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone. — Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
- I didn’t realize it, but the days came along one after another, and then two years were gone, and everything was gone, and I was gone. — F. Scott Fitzgerald, Babylon Revisted
- See, they never held you back. It was you, only you. — Yrsa Daley-Ward, Mental Health
- Дверь не охраняют, если в комнате ничего нет. - A Place To Call Home
- I am a delusion angel.
I’m a fantasy parade.
I want you to know what I think.
Don’t want you to guess anymore
. You have no idea where I came from
. We have no idea where we’re going.
Lodged in life, like branches in the river.
Flowing downstream caught in the current.
I carry you, you’ll carry me
. That’s how it could be
* Don’t you know me?
Don’t you know me by now? - Before Sunrise
- You can close your eyes and dream about life in the future or you can visit Tokyo.
- Which do you want: the pain of staying where you are, or the pain of growth? — Judith Hanson Lasater
- Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it, but you laugh inside — remembering all the times you’ve felt that way. — Charles Bukowski
- I like trains. I like their rhythm, and I like the freedom of being suspended between two places, all anxieties of purpose taken care of: for this moment I know where I am going. - Anna Funder
