"Knowing
is better than wondering. Waking is better than
sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the
worst, beats the hell out of never trying."
"If
there's an upside to free-falling, it's the chance you
give your friends to catch you."
"We
spend our whole lives worrying about the future,
planning for the future, trying to predict the future,
as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. But the
future is always changing. The future is the home of
our deepest fears and wildest hopes. But one thing is
certain when it finally reveals itself. The future is
never the way we imagined it."
"Did
you say it? 'I love you.' 'I don't ever want to
live without you.' 'You changed my life.' Did you
say it? Make a plan. Set a goal. Work toward it,
but every now and then look around; Drink it in
'cause this is it. It might all be gone tomorrow."
"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."
"We do our very best, but
sometimes it's just not good enough. We buckle
our seat belts, we wear a helmet, we stick to
the lighted paths, we try to be safe."
"We
try so hard to protect ourselves, but it doesn't
make a damn bit of difference. Cause when the
bad things come, they come out of nowhere. The
bad things come suddenly, with no warning. But
we forget that sometimes that's how the good
things come too."
"Have some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a
force of nature. Be better than anyone here and don't give
a damn about what anyone thinks."
"Don't let what he wants eclipse what
you need. He's very dreamy, but he's not the sun. You
are."
"It'll
hurt every time you think of her. But over time,
it will hurt less and less. And eventually
you'll remember her and it will only hurt a
little."
