“When someone was willing to drown with me, I really didn’t want to drown anymore.”

When you’re taught to love everyone, to love your enemies, what value does that put on love?

My pain’s not ashamed to repeat itself

People are too lazy and too stupid to think for themselves that we’ve got sitcoms with canned laughter that let’s you know when to laugh if you’re to stupid to know when the joke is.

When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed.

Music is the strongest form of magic.

The death of one is a tragedy, but death of a million is just a statistic.

But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best.

Art to me is a question mark.

This question is posed to myself, am I a man who thinks he’s an angel? Or an angel who thinks he’s a man?

Light a candle for the sinners set the world on fire.

The crack inside your fucking heart is me.

If you really feel hatred for someone, and kind of send it their way, then it’s out of your system and in their hands. I always think it’s therapeutic.

There’s nothing like the feeling of knowing that you’ve made a difference in someone’s life, even if that difference is a lifetime of nightmares and a fortune in therapy bills.

A lot of people don’t want to make their own decisions. They’re too scared. It’s much easier to be told what to do.

We don’t like to kill our unborn; we need them to grow up and fight our wars.

In a society where you are taught to love everything, what value does that place on love?

If anyone asks you for something that you believe would be injurious to him, refuse, but in such a manner as not to lose his good-will.

More than anything else, what differentiates people who live up to their potential from those who don’t is a willingness to look at themselves and others objectively.

Holiness does not consist in mystic speculations, enthusiastic fervours, or uncommanded austerities; it consists in thinking as God thinks, and willing as God wills.

He does not call those who are worthy, but those whom He wills.

Work hard every day at increasing your purity of heart, which consists in appraising things and weighing them in the balance of God’s will.

Christ does not force our will, He only takes what we give Him. But He does not give Himself entirely until He sees that we yield ourselves entirely to Him.

Do what you want to do, and don’t feel pressure to do what other people want.

Teach us, Good Lord, to give and not count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to seek for rest; to labor and not to ask for any reward save that of knowing that we do thy will.
