Don’t let one cloud obliterate the whole sky.

The weak die out and the strong will survive, and will live on forever.

The first time you fall in love, it changes you forever and no matter how hard you try, that feeling just never goes away.

If there ever comes a day when we can’t be together, keep me in your heart. I’ll stay there forever.

We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right.
