You think there’s nothing out there for you, but there is...

You think there’s nothing out there for you, but there is.

 You just can’t see it. 

Water for Elephants

It’s so curious: one can resist tears and ‘behave’ 

very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then 

someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, 

or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday

 has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer

… and everything collapses.

Colette

Love doesn’t have to be on Valentine’s Day. 

It doesn’t have to be by the time you turn eighteen 

or thirty-three or fifty-nine. It doesn’t have to conform 

to whatever is usual. It doesn’t have to be kismet at once,

 or rhapsody by the third day. It just has to be.

 In time. In place. In spirit. 

It just has to be. 

David Levithan

I forgive not because I became a saint,
but because I’m tired of hating.

Paulo Coelho

It’s funny how you can forget everything 

except people loving you. Maybe that’s why humans

 find it so hard getting over love affairs. 

It’s not the pain they’re getting over, it’s the love.

Melina Marchetta

People are not bombs, bullets, 

they’re not a color of skin, a sexual orientation. 

They’re not male or female, 

they’re not a nationality, they’re not a flag.

 They’re human beings.

Justin Greever

You can only hurt someone until there’s nothing left to hurt.

You never really understand a person 

until you consider things from his point of view—

until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.

Harper Lee

What kills love? Only this: neglect.

I forgive not because I became a saint,

If you end up with a boring miserable life 

because you listened to your mom, your dad, 

your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television 

telling you how to do your shit, 

then you deserve it.

Frank Zappa
