Those who don't believe in magic will never find it...



 
(1213)
And above all, watch with glittering eyes the 
whole world around you because the greatest secrets 
are always hidden in the most unlikely places. 
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.
Roald Dahl

Just for today
Do not get angry
Do not worry
Be thankful
Work hard
Be kind to others.

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t 
know how to replenish it’s source. It dies of blindness and 
errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; 
it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.
Anais Nin

Under those perfect clothes and perfect smiles, 
everyone has their no-so-perfect secrets.

Why do they always teach us that it’s easy and evil to do
 what we want and that we need discipline to restrain ourselves? 
It’s the hardest thing in the world—to do what we want. 
And it takes the greatest kind of courage.
Ayn Rand

Don’t explain. People only hear what they want to hear.

When everything seems to be going against you, 
remember that the airplane takes off 
against the wind, not with it.
 Henry Ford

If you smile when no one else is around, you really mean it.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Never run from the truth. It is always there;
 it never changes – save your energy.

I hadn’t felt such disgust for a boy since the early days, 
when they’d tease girls on the playground, kicking us
 and throwing gravel and raising their voices in high screechy mockery. 
“They do that because they like you,” all the adults said, 
grinning like pumpkins. We believed them, back then. Back then 
we thought it was true, and we were drawn toward all that meanness
 because it meant we were special, let them kick us, let them like us. 
We liked them back. But now it was turning out that our first instincts
 were right. Boys weren’t mean because they like you;
 it was because they were mean.
Daniel Handler
