You are every beautiful thing that has ever happened to me wrapped in a person. You may think you are ordinary, but to me you are as magical as the ocean.
Not all girls are made of sugar and spice and all things nice. Some are made of witchcraft and wolf and a little bit of vice.
You must understand: they fear you. There is nothing scarier in their minds than a girl who knows the power of her flames.
Some girls are full of heartache and poetry and those are the kind of girls who try to save wolves instead of running away from them.
Those freckles make you seem like a galaxy of stars, just waiting to be explored and loved.
You are damaged and broken and unhinged. But so are shooting stars and comets.
We have calcium in our bones, iron in our veins, carbon in our souls, and nitrogen in our brains. 93 percent stardust, with souls made of flames, we are all just stars that have people names.
You fell in love with a storm. Did you really think you would get out unscathed?

When you meet the right person, you know it. You can’t stop thinking about them. They are your best friend and your soulmate. You can’t wait to spend the rest of your life with them. No one and nothing else can compare. —Klaus
Shouldn’t we hold out for the person who doesn’t just tolerate our little quirks but actually kinda likes them?—Ted Mosby
The future is scary, but you can’t just run back to the past because it’s familiar. Yes it’s tempting, but it’s a mistake. —Robin Scherbatsky
So really, the bigger mistake would be to not make the mistake, because then you’d go your whole life not knowing if something is a mistake or not.—Lily Aldrin
If you’re really honest with yourself about what you want out of life, life gives it to you.—Ted Mosby
But that’s the funny thing about destiny: it happens whether you plan it or not. It turns out I was just too close to the puzzle to see the picture that was forming.—Ted Mosby

If I could give my daughter three things, it would be the confidence to always know her self worth, the strength to chase her dreams, and the ability to know how truly, deeply loved she is.
This is for my beautiful Daughters:
Even when I don’t see you or talk to you, I’ll always will LOVE YOU.
I hate being away from you but I need to get better to be better for you both
When the wrong people leave your life, the right things start to happen
I call this beer, Milk of the Gods!
Be brave, son! Order room service.
When I collect workman’s comp, some lady has to fill out the paperwork. That’s her job. If it wasn’t for me, she’d be unemployed.
You see, this is the point I’m making with the liberal elite. In the war between the have-nots and the have everything’s, their guilt is our ammunition. Never forget that.
Daddy Frank, you are a serious badass and an essential member of this family.
If you’re waiting for a new organ, you are just interfering with God’s plan.
Be lucky you don’t get gonorrhea from your cell mate. Spoken with love, son.
Pretty soon, there’s not gonna be any Jew or Aryan or Hindu or Muslim or Mexican or Blacks. There’s just gonna be the rich and the fucked, and our grandson is already one of the fucked.
Bullying is a vital part of every ecosystem. It teaches kids resilience. The world is a rough place. Bullying is like getting inoculated. It’s a vaccine.
Don’t let your emotions completely obscure the barbaric roots of the sexual act. Don’t lose touch with the seeds of our animal nature.
You shut your mouth, you have all the strengths.
One person’s annoying is another’s inspiring and heroic.
There is nothing we can’t do if we work hard, never sleep, and shirk all other responsibilities in our lives.
I am big enough to admit that I am often inspired by myself.
What I hear when I’m being yelled at is people caring really loudly at me.
I’m a feminist, okay? I would never ever go to a strip club. I’ve gone on record that if I had to have a stripper’s name, it would be Equality.
I am a Goddess, a glorious female warrior.
You know my code: hoes before bros. Uteruses before duderuses…Ovaries before brovaries.
You’re a beautiful, talented, brilliant, powerful musk ox.

But the reality is we often become our kindest, most ethical selves only by seeing what it feels like to be a selfish jackass first. — Tiny Beautiful Things
I’m a free spirit who never had the balls to be free. — Wild
In my perception, the world wasn’t a graph or formula or an equation. It was a story. — Wild
How wild it was, to let it be. — Wild
I’ll never know, and neither will you, of the life you don’t choose. We’ll only know that whatever that sister life was, it was important and beautiful and not ours. It was the ghost ship that didn’t carry us. There’s nothing to do but salute it from the shore. — Tiny Beautiful Things
Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room. — Tiny Beautiful Things
You cannot convince people to love you. This is an absolute rule. No one will ever give you love because you want him or her to give it. Real love moves freely in both directions. Don’t waste your time on anything else. – Tiny Beautiful Things
The universe, I’d learned, was never, ever kidding. It would take whatever it wanted and it would never give it back. — Wild
Don’t surrender all your joy for an idea you used to have about yourself that isn’t true anymore. – Tiny Beautiful Things
Gemma knows every truth behind every lie inside every secret. She’s the gatekeeper. – Juice
This is about war and maybe tomorrow, next month, maybe ten years from now someone wearing a Reaper will cut your heart out. – Bobby

We can’t allow our hearts to be louder than our reason. – Chibs
Anger clouds judgement and it makes us do things that we end up regretting. Things we can never take back. – Hale
When the time comes she needs to tell my sons who I really am. I’m not a good man. I’m a criminal and a killer. I need my sons to grow up hating the thought of me. – Jax
He made it through the Iraqi mine fields only to get taken out in a Goddamn kitchen. – Clay
If you gave a s*** about Tara maybe you’d spend a little less time being a thug and a little more time being a dad. – Unser
I’m always upset about not doing things as good as I think I could have because I care.
The focus should be on the music and not my sexuality.
Definitely, it’s hard being a young artist and being taken seriously.
I think anyone can do anything they dream of if they put their mind to it and put in the work.
I’m all over the place with muffins. Carrots are great. Banana, chocolate chip, they rock, too.
You just have to play it cool. You don’t want everyone to know you’re an amateur.
I’m not the best singer in the world; I’m just good at picking up what I want to sound like.
I think it’s not about what you say; it’s about what you don’t say.
You can’t get too comfortable and relax, because your world can flip overnight.
My advice to anyone with a dream is to never stop pursuing it.
If you clean a vacuum cleaner, are you a vacuum cleaner?
I don’t like telling people telling how old I am.
Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang,
Spend ten racks on a new chain
Everything that you done did, I done did it
Pockets swole like it’s 24 Fitness
Diamond on my wrist look like glue
Move them bricks to the bando like, ouu
100 on my wrist
80 on a brick
Lil Pump never spent money on a bit*h
My lean cost more than your rent
Your mama still live in a tent.
Look at my neck shine
Look at my wrist shine
My diamonds make you blind.
I can’t buy a bit*h no wedding ring
Rather go and buy Balmains.
Some infinities are bigger than other infinities.
You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world… but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.
My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations.
I’m a grenade and at some point I’m going to blow up and I would like to minimize the casualties, okay?
You are so busy being YOU that you have no idea how utterly unprecedented you are.
That’s part of what I like about the book in some ways. It portrays death truthfully. You die in the middle of your life, in the middle of a sentence.
Maybe ‘okay’ will be our ‘always.’
Some tourists think that Amsterdam is a city of sin, but in truth it is a city of freedom. And in freedom, most people find sin.
Books are so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like a betrayal.
The world is not a wish-granting factory.
This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your hearts and souls.
Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary.
Sucking the marrow out of life doesn’t mean choking on the bone.
Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all. Thoreau said, “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation.” Don’t be resigned to that. Break out!
When you read, don’t just consider what the author thinks, consider what you think.
But only in their dreams can man be truly free. ‘Twas always thus, and always thus will be.
Just when you think you know something, you have to look at in another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try.
There’s a time for daring and there’s a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for.
We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love; these are what we stay alive for.
No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.
It ain’t easy being king.
You reach an age where you realize that being a man isn’t about respect or strength, it’s about being aware of all the things you touch.
Every day is a new box, boys. You open it, you take a look at what’s inside. You’re the one who determines if it’s a gift… or a coffin.
It’s hard not to hate. People. Things. Institutions. When they break your spirit and take pleasure in watching you bleed. Hate… is the only feeling that makes sense.
The bond that holds this club together isn’t about love or brotherhood anymore. We lost that a long time ago. It’s just fear and greed now.
I buried my best friend three days ago. As cliché as this sounds, I left a part of me in that box.
Is there anything you love so much, you’d protect it, no matter the cost; the damage it did to you?
Today, I will be the man my father tried to be. I will make you proud.
I’m not a good man. I’m a criminal and a killer. I need my sons to grow up hating the thought of me.
Every time I think maybe I’m heading in the right direction, I end up in a place I never even knew could feel this bad.
If you surround yourself with quality people and great friends, the sky’s the limit.
The day I stop giving is the day I stop receiving. The day I stop learning is the day I stop growing. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.
Maybe it wasn’t the talent the Lord gave me – maybe it was the passion.
No matter who you are, we’re creatures of habit. The better your habits are, the better they will be in pressure situations.
The only way a kid is going to practice is if it’s total fun for him… and it was for me.
I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.
I’m not a big risk-taker. I stay away from things I don’t know anything about.
I wasn’t naturally gifted in terms of size and speed; everything I did in hockey I worked for, and that’s the way I’ll be as a coach.
The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.
When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less.
You are a gynecologist and a lesbian. This makes you a vagenius. – Schmidt
I’m only attracted to guys who are afraid of success and think someone famous stole their idea. – Jess
I’m like a mailman, except instead of mail, it’s hot sex that I deliver. – Nick
The economy stinks, bees are dying and movies are pretty much all sequels now. – Schmidt
At least I’m not 23, at least I own a trashcan, at least I can legally rent a car, at least I don’t live in a loft with three… at least I live with you guys. – Jess
I got your text. When you’re going through a “Taylor Swift-like range of emotions,” I should come over, right? – Cece
Without sex, shoe’s not your girlfriend, okay? She’s a friend you buy meals for. – Schmidt
You know, sometimes I feel like I’ve never really felt love. – Winston
You were denied a cell phone because you have a credit score of a homeless ghost. – Schmidt
I’m gonna end up all alone. I’m gonna be a single old lady, flashing people on the subway. – Jess
I know you think she was the one, but I don’t. You’re just remembering the good stuff.
I love how she makes me feel… like anything is possible, like lie is worth it.
You know what sucks? Realizing that everything you believe in you believe in, is complete and utter bullshit.
There’s no such thing as love. It’s a fantasy.
Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.
We’re weirdos. But that’s who we are. And that’s fine.
Why is it pretty girls think they can treat people like crap and get away with it?
I like being on my own. Relationships are messy and people’s feelings get hurt. Who needs it? We’re young. We live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Might as well have fun while we can and save the serious stuff for later.
Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin and they end with no lasting memory made in between. Most days have no impact on the course of life.
People don’t realize this, but loneliness is overrated.
Things end, people change
and you know what, life goes on.
Do you ever look at someone and just pray to God you never have to lose them?
Live from the block, shine in the dark.
I am losing my mind
I am losing myself
Am I made of glass?
You don’t even see me here
I do a million things for your attention
and you don’t even notice.
Am I made up of glass?
I know you want this for life
Taking pictures with all my ice
But I can’t have no wife
I just want you for the night.
Sometimes to get to God
first you gotta meet the Devil.
I can’t tell if my heart’s beating
Sometimes I think it’s just you
That I live and breathe
What’s always been asked of me
is to reach a bit higher than I’m able to
The standards of the world becoming like Everest
The more I go towards the top, stress builds up like a mountain
I know I can never rest
The media says you have a right to know
But they make you forget your right to live.
It don’t matter how much money you got or you lack/When that check clear don’t forget your children is still black.
The reason why daughters love their dad the most is that there is at least one man in the world who will never hurt her.
DAD – A son’s first hero. A daughters first love.
A father hold his daughter’s hand for a short while, but he holds her heart forever.
My Daddy was my hero. He was always there for me when I needed him. He listened to me and taught me so many things. But most of all he was fun.
To a father growing old, nothing is dearer than a daughter.
Every girl may not be a queen to her husband, but she is always a princess to her father.
A girl’s first true love is her father.
Old as she was, she still missed her daddy sometimes.
Watching your daughter being collected by her date feels like handing over a million-dollar Stradivarius to a gorilla.
I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father’s equal, and I never loved any other man as much.
I think my mom put it best. She said, ‘Little girls soften their daddy’s hearts.’
A father’s tears and fears are unseen, his love is unexpressed, but his care and protection remains as a pillar of strength throughout our lives.
The main reason why a daughter needs a Dad is to show her that not all the boys are like the ones who hurt her.
It is admirable for a man to take his son fishing, but there is a special place in heaven for the father who takes his daughter shopping.
A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again.
Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons, ambition; but to our daughters there is something which there are no words to express.
Any astronomer can predict with absolute accuracy just where every star in the universe will be at 11.30 tonight. He can make no such prediction about his teenage daughter.
I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike; so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike; so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
I took my daughter to the father-daughter dance and I cried like a little baby. She’s 11 years old, so seeing her get dressed up and pretty made me cry.
My Daddy was my hero. He was always there for me when I needed him. He listened to me and taught me so many things. But most of all he was fun.
Having a daughter makes you see things in a different way. This is my only girl. So I don’t care what it takes to protect her. You can call it what you want to call it. As long as you treat her the same way I treat her, like my princess, I don’t mind.
Some days are just bad days, that’s all. You have to experience sadness to know happiness, and I remind myself that not every day is going to be a good day, that’s just the way it is!
Every human walks around with a certain kind of sadness. They may not wear it on their sleeves, but it’s there if you look deep.
Love lies in those unsent drafts in your mailbox. Sometimes you wonder whether things would have been different if you’d clicked ‘Send’.
Walking alone is not difficult but when we have walked a mile worth a thousand years with someone then coming back alone is what is difficult.
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.
You can never control who you fall in love with, even when you’re in the most sad, confused time of your life. You don’t fall in love with people because they’re fun. It just happens.
Everyone can have their heart broken. Even if you know the relationship isn’t working, it’s still sad. Even in a bad relationship, they’re part of your life for a long time, and saying goodbye to that can be difficult.
When love is lost, do not bow your head in sadness; instead keep your head up high and gaze into heaven for that is where your broken heart has been sent to heal.
When you’re happy you don’t always have to be laughing, and when you’re sad you don’t have to be crying; sometimes it’s the opposite. You laugh when you’re the most upset.
People say “I love you” to each other every day. I’m here to remind you that… I’m in love with you… Every Day!
The trouble with trouble is it starts out as fun.
When you’re in love, the whole world just starts looking more colorful.
Even though I’m bitter about losing, even though I’m depressed, even though my ankle hurts, and my eyes smeared with tears… even though I’ve never felt worse… I wonder why the stars are sparkling like this. The scent of the music room is his hair. I can hear his slightly ragged breathing. His shoulder, wet with tears, is so warm. I am by his side. I wish I would just stand still.
Maybe, just maybe… the light can reach the bottom of a dark ocean.
We’re all connected. Just like the notes are intermittently connected. It’s shared by us all. Through music, with the people you know, with the people you don’t know, with all the people in this world.
You’re you. “To be like you…” it’s not so ambiguous as that. No matter what you do, no matter how you change, it doesn’t mean a thing. You’re just you no matter what.
Everything you say and do…it all sparkles so brightly. It’s too blinding for me, and I end up closing my eyes. But I can’t help aspiring to be like you.
Music speaks louder than words.
Whether you’re sad, you’re a mess, or you’ve hit rock bottom, you still have TO PLAY! That’s how people like us survive.
You exist inside a spring that can’t be replaced.
Isn’t it funny how the most uncomfortable scenes can be so trivial?
At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don’t keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That’s how we’re made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.
We all think we’re going to be great. And we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren’t met. But, sometimes, our explanations sell us short. Sometimes, the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. The unexpected… is what changes our lives.
Some days, the whole world seems upside down. And then somehow, improbably, and when you least expect it, the world rights itself again.
Time flies. Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us wants is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go. Time.
Funny, isn’t it, the way memory works? The things you can’t quite remember, and the things you can never forget.
Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? It’s not a day on the calendar, not a birthday, not a new year. It’s an event. Big or small. Something that changes us. Ideally, it gives us hope.
I think you can’t wait for someone to fly underneath you and save your life. I think you have to save yourself.
