An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an “Escalator Temporary Out of Order” sign, just Escalator Temporary Stairs. Sorry for the Inconvenience.
My belt holds my pants up, but the belt loops hold my belt up. I don’t really know what’s happening down there. Who’s the real hero?
People teach their dogs to sit; it’s a trick. I’ve been sitting my whole life, and a dog has never looked at me as though he thought I was tricky.
Every book is a children’s book if a kid can read.
The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how good I get, I’ll never be as good as a wall.
I would imagine if you understand Morse Code, a tap dancer would drive you crazy.
I’m sick of following my dreams. I’m just going to ask them where they’re going and hook up with them later.

Look at the stars tonight, all the stars have a reason.
The music’s the only thing keeping the peace when I’m falling to pieces.
Loving you is like a fairytale.
I definitely think the planet is very sad. I also think a lot of people are very ungrateful, which is also another big problem.
The world gives you so much pain and here you are making gold out of it – there is nothing purer than that.
I am hopelessly
a lover and
a dreamer and
that will be the
death of me.
Fall
in love
with your solitude.
The thing about writing is I can’t tell if it’s healing or destroying.
You might not have been my first love
but you were the love that made
all others seem
irrelevant.
How you love yourself
is how you teach others
to love you.
People go but how they left always stays.
Our backs tell stories no books have the spine to carry.
…do not look for healing
at the feet of those
who broke you.
Loneliness is a sign you are in desperate need of yourself.
Every song has a coda, a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away, every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music? The truth is, there is nothing to be afraid of. It’s just life.
Someone once said that death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside of us while we live. I could tell you who said it, but who the hell really cares?
It’s hard when you miss people. But you know if you miss them, that means you’re lucky. It means you had someone special in your life, someone worth missing.
It’s a magical place, son. I’ve seen that magic in your eyes for the past nine years. There’s only one Tree Hill, Jamie Scott. And it’s your home.
At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes — all you need is one.
I’m sticking with the shoelaces. The hearts say I like you, but the shoelace part isn’t too mushy.
Someone once said; ‘It’s the good girls who keep diaries. The bad girls never have the time. Me… I just wanna live a life I’m gonna remember. Even if I don’t write it down…
Truth is still absolute. Believe that. Even when that truth is hard and cold, and more painful than you’ve ever imagined. And even when truth is more cruel than any lie.
Have you ever wondered what marks our time here? If one life can really make an impact on the world… or if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives. For better… or worse.
There is no shame in being afraid. Hell, we’re all afraid. What you gotta do is figure out what you’re afraid of because when you put a face on it, you can beat it. Better yet, you can use it.
I worry there is something broken in our generation, there are too many sad eyes on happy faces.
It was her chaos that made her beautiful.
Time is all we have and don’t.
She was everything real in a world of make-believe.
She wore the moonlight like lingerie.
What good are wings without courage to fly?
Depression is being colorblind and being told how colorful the world is.
We are made of those who have built and broken us. She conquered her demons and wore her scars like wings.

Love her, but leave her wild.
Have i taken loan from you..cause my interest is increasing towards you!!

I want to travel overseas and help out people all over the world.
Depending on the story that you’re telling, you can be relatable to everybody or nobody. I try and tell everybody’s story.
I’m still a very frugal person. But everything that does get spent is a reinvestment into my own music.
Don’t make the music that they like. Make them like the music that you make. It wouldn’t be cool if you were just making it so that they fuck with it. What’s the point?
Sometimes the truth don’t rhyme.
What’s better than followers, is actually falling in love.
Fame or perceived success – it all comes from groupthink.
Looking at cleavage is like looking at the sun. You don’t stare at it. It’s too risky. Ya get a sense of it and then you look away.

I have a bad feeling that whenever a lesbian looks at me they think ‘That’s why I’m not a heterosexual.’
When you look annoyed all the time, people think that you’re busy.

That’s the true spirit of Christmas; people being helped by people other than me.
Borrowing money from a friend is like having sex. It just completely changes the relationship.
It’s just; sometimes… people don’t really say what they’re really thinking. But when you capture the right moment, it says more.
People don’t spend their lives trying to get a look at what’s behind the curtain. They like the curtain. It provides them stability, comfort, definition.

Hurt me with the truth. Don’t comfort me with a lie.
It’s nice to look back on your life and see things as lessons, and not regrets.
If I cry, it’s because I’m very angry and I can’t do anything about it because I’ve run into a dead end. That’s when the tears would come down.
Let go of the things that make you feel dead! Life is worth living!
Nobody can understand what you’re feeling unless they burn the way you burned.
I learned, when I look in the mirror and tell my story, that I should be myself and not peep whatever everybody is doing.
Don’t you know your imperfection’s a blessing?
Everyday I try to escape the realities of this world.
I’m trying to learn something new. I’m trying to surround myself with people that inspire me, or at least inquire similar desire.
Maybe because I’m a dreamer and sleep is the cousin of death.
Look at me, I’m a loser, I’m a winner, I’m good, I’m bad. I’m a sinner, I’m a killer. What I’m doing, I’m saying that I’m human.
Life will put many red lights in front of you, but sometimes we must push on the gas and trust god.
Live your life, live it right. Be different, do different things.
Consequences from evil will make your past haunt you.
I’d rather not live like there isn’t a god, then die and find out there really is. Think about it.
There’s a hunger in me that always wants to be creating and orating, telling people something and giving them information and getting feedback.
I’d say it’s very forward. Everything you write as an artist is about your legacy and your catalog, and how you would look in a museum.
There’s nothing like doing a show at home. When you do a show in Chicago, there’s just a certain love that you don’t feel anywhere else; it’s like home base.
I write a lot. There’s always just different things I’m thinking about.
Even then, it was still kind of—I was in sixth grade. I was always saying I was going to become a rapper.

Rap music is a combination of many different arts to make something new.
Music can kind of make you one-dimensional.
There’s nothing like the feeling of screaming your story to people.
Everybody’s somebody’s everything.
Why was the broom late for the meeting? It overswept.
This is not a dictatorship. This is America. Give me liberty, or give me meth.
Revolutions don’t come wrapped in a cute ribbon. You want to bring down power structures? You want to get in the face of people who are peddling corroded ideals? You need a uniform that screams authenticity.
Love is not supposed to be cute. Love is supposed to be raw and destructive.
Doing things you don’t want to do is how you make a relationship work.
If gay people having sex is what offends people the most, they should let them get married because anyone who’s been married knows the sex is downhill from there.
I believe in a force that thinks it’s greater than myself.
If God didn’t want things up our ass, He would’ve given the rectum a gag reflex.
Every day is an opportunity you don’t get back, so don’t blow it working.
Hello boys. The front door was locked so I came in the back. No pun intended.

The scariest thing about distance is that you don’t know whether they’ll miss you or forget you.
In times of grief and sorrow I will hold you and rock you and take your grief and make it my own. When you cry I cry and when you hurt I hurt. And together we will try to hold back the floods to tears and despair and make it through the potholed street of life.
We sit silently and watch the world around us. This has taken a lifetime to learn. It seems only the old are able to sit next to one another and not say anything and still feel content. The young, brash and impatient, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking. This is the great paradox.
Every great love starts with a great story.
You are the answer to every prayer I’ve offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don’t know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have.
We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that’s why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I’ll never forget a single moment of it.
You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.
You are, and always have been, my dream.
You can’t live your life for other people. You’ve got to do what’s right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.
I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough…
Strength comes from lifting yourself up when you are down
The woman who does not require validation from anyone is the most feared individual on the planet
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain
You were given this life because you’re strong enough to live it
Life does not get easier, you just get stronger
Magic is believing in yourself. If you can do that, you can make anything happen.
A single feat of daring can alter the whole conception of what is possible
We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.
Throw me to the wolves and I will return leading the pack
Success is achieved by developing our strengths, not by eliminating our weaknesses
You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice
The struggle you’re in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow
Wake up with determination. Go to bed with satisfaction.
Our passion is our strength.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Do not pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
You have within you, right now, everything you need to deal with whatever the world can throw at you
Strength reveals itself through character.
Giving up doesn’t mean you are weak …sometimes it means you are strong enough to let go
You are so much stronger than you think
Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t.

When I eat, it is the food that is sacred.
Fishing relaxes me. It’s like yoga, except I still get to kill something.
I regret nothing. The end.
Never half-ass two things. Whole-ass one thing.
It is vital that every child in Nebraska, whether native, white, immigrant or offspring of former slave, be afforded an opportunity to learn.
The law protects the man who enriches himself through the foreclosures of mortgages, it does not protect the sacred right of the farmer to live a decent life and to earn a decent living.
This condition of being treated as children we want to have nothing to do with… the majority of the Omahas are as competent as the same number of white people.
From the outset the work of an Indian girl is plain before her. We who are educated have to pioneers of Indian civilization. We have to prepare our people to live in the white man’s way, to use the white man’s books, and to use his laws if you will only give them to us… the shores of success can only be reached by crossing the bridge of faith.
Intemperance increased… men, women, and children drank; men and women died from alcoholism, and little children were seen reeling on the streets of the town; drunken brawls in which men were killed occurred, and no person’s life was considered safe.
We who are educated have to be pioneers of Indian civilization. The white people have reached a high standard of civilization, but how many years has it taken them? We are only beginning; so do not try to put us down, but help us climb higher. Give us a chance.
My office hours are any and all hours of the day and night.
I’m not accomplishing miracles, but I’m beginning to see some of the results of better hygiene and health habits. And we’re losing fewer babies and fewer cases to infection.
I know I shall be unpopular for a while with my people, because they will misconstrue my efforts, but this is nothing, just so I can help them for their own good.
It was only an Indian and it did not matter. The doctor preferred hunting for prairie chickens rather than visiting poor, suffering humanity.
I need to go take a shower so I can’t tell if I’m crying or not.
When we know what we know about a monster like that and we still put him on TV every week, we’re teaching a generation of young boys and girls that a man’s reputation is more important than the lives of the women he’s ruined.
That’s exactly the problem. Because he’s so nice, people don’t want to think he’s capable of awful things so they let him off the hook.
This is a situation comedy. No one watches the show to feel feelings. Life is depressing enough already.
So yesterday you let yourself fall in love a little bit and you got your heart broken. Serves you right for having feelings! Starting now, you are a hard, heartless gal. Go to work. Be awesome at it, and don’t waste your time on foolish flights of fancy. From now on, you are a robot.
It’s not about being happy, that is the thing. I’m just trying to get through each day. I can’t keep asking myself ‘Am I happy? ‘ It just makes me more miserable. I don’t know If I believe in it, real lasting happiness, All those perky, well-adjusted people you see in movies and TV shows? I don’t think they exist.
Things don’t become traditions because they’re good, BoJack, they become good because they’re traditions.
When you look at someone through rose-colored glasses, all the red flags just look like flags.
You know, sometimes I feel like I was born with a leak, and any goodness I started with just slowly spilled out of me, and now it’s all gone. And I’ll never get it back in me. It’s too late.
There is no shame in dying for nothing. That’s why most people die for it.
It can be scary to find out you’ve been wrong about something. But we can’t be afraid to change our minds, to accept that things are different, that they’ll never be the same, for better or for worse. We have to be willing to give up what we used to believe. The more we’re willing to accept what is and not what we thought; we’ll find ourselves exactly where we belong.
The body is a slave to its impulses. But the thing that makes us human is what we can control. After the storm, after the rush, after the heat of the moment has passed, we can cool off and clean up the messes we made. We can try to let go of what was.
Change: We don’t like it, we fear it, but we can’t stop it from coming. We either adapt to change, or we get left behind. It hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But here’s the truth: Sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything.
Pain comes in all forms. The small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain, the normal pains we live with everyday. Then there is the kind of pain you can’t ignore. A level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else. Makes the rest of the world fade away. Until all we can think about is how much we hurt. How we manage our pain is up to us. We anesthetize, ride it out, embrace it, ignore it, and for some of us the best way to manage pain is to just push through it.
It doesn’t matter how tough we are. Trauma always leaves a scar. It follows us home, it changes our lives. Trauma messes everybody up. But maybe that’s the point. All the pain and the fear and the crap. Maybe going through all that is what keeps us moving forward. It’s what pushes us. Maybe we have to get a little messed up, before we can step up.
Walk tall. All you can do is be brave enough to get out there. You fought. You loved. You Lost. Walk tall.
You can have the worst crap in the world happen to you and you can get over it. All you gotta do is survive.
Why does it feel so good to get rid of things? To unload? To let go? Maybe because when we see how little we actually need to survive, it makes us realize how powerful we actually are. To strip down to only what we need. To hang on to only what we can’t do without. Not just to survive, but to thrive.
Don’t let what he wants eclipse what you need. He’s very dreamy, but he’s not the sun.
It always feels like there is just one person in this world to love. And then you find somebody else, and it just seems crazy that you were ever worried in the first place.
The good parts of love are so good, you’re willing to suffer an unbelievable amount of pain just to get to them. That’s why I have been married three times and engaged 12.
Great things happen in tiny little increments. You know, they happen when someone thinks completely differently.
Sometimes when people love each other very much, they need time apart, so when they come back together, their love is even stronger.
Once you announce your depravity, there’s plenty of other depravers seeking company.
Revolutions don’t come wrapped in a cute ribbon. You want to bring down power structures? You want to get in the face of people who are peddling corroded ideals? You need a uniform that screams authenticity.
Just because we were born here doesn’t mean that we end up here.
Sometimes, we get so wrapped up in getting what we want, that we forget to ask ourselves why we wanted it in the first place.
