“When you start growing and valuing yourself, certain individuals will start to fall off.”

You attract the energy you give out to the world.

A quiet mind in a state of peace can do absolutely everything.

The problem with this country is that you meet your soulmate after getting married.

Change is painful, but nothing is as painful as being stuck somewhere you don’t belong.

You deserve to be proud of the person you are and love the life you’re living.

Pain helps you create a better future for yourself.

When you are angry, control your temper.

Success is born in moments when you think you can’t go on but you keep going anyway.

If you don’t treat yourself with respect, other people won’t do either.

Comparison will only hinder your progress.

Never let someone else bring you down to their level.

It hurts when your efforts aren’t appreciated.

Love is also a powerful weapon in the world. It sometimes can hurt people, kill people or maybe change a person.

Failure hurts once. Regret hurt over and over again.

You deserve to live the life you want to live, not the life others expect you to live.

Sometimes you need to leave the past in the past.

The sons of Adam are formed from dust; if not humble as the dust, they fall short of being men.

Ordinary people who are just kind of just going about their lives are transformed into heroes because they have the courage to put their voices out there. And I think that’s a powerful message in this time of political strife.

Nothing is more terrifying than falling in love.

Those who fall away have never been thoroughly imbued with the knowledge of Christ but only had a slight and passing taste of it.

The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia the shadowy and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.

I just need to let myself fall in love with myself.

I’m still learning that falling is supposed to be a two way street.

Tell me I’m your sweet thing so I can simmer in sweet dreams tonight.
