“Don’t let others box you into their idea of what they think you should be.”

Just be yourself. Let people see the real, imperfect, flawed, quirky, weird, beautiful and magical person that you are.

Don’t fall on their level. Be better.

The heart never forgets what makes it happy. Happiness helps the wounds heal into scars.

Fight hard the battle of life and take the challenges with courage, determination, and perseverance.

Our perception is the lens we see the world through.

No one stays forever. Just learn to be happy alone.

The idea of feeling great at all times is purely fictional for a simple reason: we get bored of the same things, same feelings, same environments pretty quickly. If everything was always nice and great, you’d get depressed.

Be with the people who have good intentions.

We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections.

There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance.

Life is just another beast you were meant to tame, and there is no one better for the job, other than you.

Never outsource your happiness to someone else. Derive it from within by enjoying your own company.

Just because I’m smiling doesn’t mean I’m Not hurt.

If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create.

If everything is perfect, you would never learn and you would never grow. Life is not so much what you accomplish as what you overcome.

Don’t let your past keep you away from your greatness today. Regret only lives in the mind. Release it all because you are renewed every second.

It bothers me that the average fan, the average sportswriter for that matter, pays so much attention to what’s in a box score.

A box score does not properly represent the most important thing – team play. It shows some guy scoring 27 points, but it doesn’t show that my 27-point man let his guy score 30.

Often life is a frantic avoidance of the truth.

My friends are a crayola box. They highlight different colors of my being, representing different aspects of my personalty, I’ve noticed.

Although it is tempting to imagine an ancient era innocent of biochemical weaponry, in fact this Pandora’s box of horrors was opened thousands of years ago.

I never put myself in a box. I like to have various different types of songs and different genres and situational songs.

Without a doubt she was a trailblazer who not only stepped outside the box but who dared to redefine it.

You get some gloves and a scarf from a lost-and-found box, wash them, wear them for a while until you lose them. Then somebody else does the same thing.
