“Don’t see the worst in a person and expect them to see the best in you.”

The reality you live in is partially up to you. The fantasy you live in is entirely up to you.

You can draw a path for your life and have all of your goals set. You can change yourself as much as possible and change things around you just to reach those goals.

Your opinion of me does not equal my self-worth.

Letting go does not mean that you are giving up or that you are weak. It could just mean that you are no longer allowing what hurts you to control you.

Take responsibility for the choices you could have made but restrained yourself from making.

Never wish them pain. That’s not who you are. If they caused you pain, they must have pain inside. Wish them healing. That’s what they need.

If they don’t appreciate your presence, they may never recognize your absence.

My home will never welcome me if I don’t welcome me.

Never underestimate the power of fate. It can knock down the highest of goals that seem guaranteed in your life.

It was the weirdest thing ever. I said to myself: why are people always so okay with not having me in their lives?

Own your healing as you’ve owned your pain.

If you ever get the chance to treat them the way they treated you, I hope you choose to walk away and do better.

Don’t judge people and expect them to stand by your side.

If I only give you what you deserve, at least keep me away from what I don’t deserve.

Don’t play with fire and expect to stay perfectly safe.

When you know what are you are doing and have a clear vision of where you are going, you will not need to chase opportunities. Opportunities will seek you. Happiness will chase you. And, instead of being a choice, you will be the one choosing.

People will listen to a song and expect that you just have that persona on all the time. But really, that was your one outlet that one day to get that emotion out. The only difference was you put it on a canvas that’s going to be there forever.

Expect the best, Prepare for the worst.

She had caprices of a marvellous unexpectedness, and how is any one to imitate a caprice?

You are, Well, not exactly the love of my life, because I expect to love you for much longer than that. The love of my existence.

We are all imperfect. We can not expect perfect government.

Death is as unexpected in his caprice as a courtesan in her disdain; but death is truer – Death has never forsaken any man.

Objects we ardently pursue bring little happiness when gained; most of our pleasures come from unexpected sources.

We are imperfect. We cannot expect perfect government.
