You can observe a lot just by watching.
Yogi Berra
Sex might satisfy, food might fuel, love might sustain, but without coffee, what is the point?
Nora Roberts
Scars prove that you're still here. That you can move on. Maybe missing a chunk of yourself, but here, goddamn it, surviving.
Ash Parsons
The only good teachers for you are those friends who love you, who think you are interesting, or very important, or wonderfully funny; whose attitude is:"Tell me more. Tell me all you can. I want to understand more about everything you feel and know and all the changes inside and out of you. Let more come out."And if you have no such friend,--and you want to write,--well, then you must imagine one.
Brenda Ueland

C.D.Reiss
Wisdom comes from knowing the order of things...and you are the first order of your business.
Elaine Marolakos Edelson
Every man — in the development of his own personality — has the right to form his own beliefs and opinions. Hence, suppression of belief, opinion and expression is an affront to the dignity of man, a negation of man’s essential na
Thomas I. Emerson
Bet I know something else you don't. There's dew on the grass in the morning.'He suddenly couldn't remember if he had known this or not, and it made him quite irritable. 'And if you look'—she nodded at the sky—'there's a man on the moon.'He hadn't looked for a long time.
Ray Bradbury
Sometimes violence cannot be stopped no matter what we do. But the more peaceful we are, the better chance we have of bringing out the peace in those around us.
Judith Orloff
These past two days, I’ve seen a fire in your eyes that I never have before. Granted, it’s mostly anger and frustration, but it’s still emotion.
Rebecca Donovan
Sometimes…tSometimes doubt is the opposite of faith, but sometimes doubt can be a pathway to faith.tSometimes weakness is the opposite of strength, but sometimes weakness can be the pathway to strength.tSometimes addiction is the opposite of sobriety, but sometimes addiction can be the pathway to sobriety.tSometimes infidelity is the opposite of fidelity, but sometimes infidelity can be a pathway to fidelity.tSometimes failure is the opposite of success, but sometimes failure can be the pathway to success.
David W. Jones
If you want to write, if you want to create, you must be the most sublime fool that God ever turned out and sent rambling. You must write every single day of your life. You must read dreadful dumb books and glorious books, and let them wrestle in beautiful fights inside your head, vulgar one moment, brilliant the next. You must lurk in libraries and climb the stacks like ladders to sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads. I wish you a wrestling match with your Creative Muse that will last a lifetime. I wish craziness and foolishness and madness upon you. May you live with hysteria, and out of it make fine stories — science fiction or otherwise. Which finally means, may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.
Ray Bradbury
Important insights ought never to be limited to the group from which may arise.
Richard J. Foster
Disaster is a natural part of my evolution toward tragedy and dissolution.
Chuck Palahniuk
The only way through pain is love.
Shannon L. Alder
You must make a decision that you are going to move on. It wont happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life.
Joel Osteen
Time is just quantified eternity.
Deepak Chopra
If you can kill it in the bedroom, chances are you can kill it in the kitchen, too—and studies have shown that men who help out more with the chores have more sex with their wives (really!). We know, gender roles run deep, which is why women in hetero relationships still end up doing the vast majority of the domestic work despite being the breadwinners in two-thirds of American homes, leaving them burned out, resentful, and, nope, not really in the mood. But it doesn’t have to be this way—and, in fact, we might want to borrow a page from our LGBTQ sisters and brothers (or those who identify as neither): research shows they split chores, decisions, and finances more evenly
Jessica Bennett
We are made kind by being kind.
Eric Hoffer
Was I the only one who became unsettled and swoonish at the sight of a large, inverted carcass hanging from a tree, its vital organs strewn about like children's toys, the occasional pack of hunting dogs fighting over a lung, another one looking for a quiet place to enjoy the severed head? It happened all the time and nobody else seemed bothered. People just walked up to the bloody carcasses and carried on entirely normal conversations, as though a man wasn't standing there squeezing deer feces out of a large intestine and small children weren't playing football with a liver.
Harrison Scott Key
It’s not the dead people you got to worry about… It’s the living that are scary.
Terry Spear
Decisions by committee are almost always long in coming and dead wrong. A world-changing vision comes from one person, not five or or twenty or a hundred, and more often than not, the best of plans are laid to waste by the many.
Patrick Carman
Saphira waved her tail, the tip whistling loudly. "I'm not asking you to. However, if we attack first, we may gain the advantage." "Have you gone crazy? They'll..." Eragon's voice trailed off as he thought about it. "They won't be able to do a thing." "Exactly," said Saphira. "We can inflict lots of damage from a safe height." "Let's drop rocks on them!
Christopher Paolini
This is a story about survival.Letting go and learning to let in. Getting along and moving on. The truth about life.The things left unsaid...
Nadège Richards
Extinction is the rule. Survival is the exception.
Carl Sagan
Negativity is a natural part of your perfect self.
Bryant McGill
The bounties of space, of infinite outwardness, were three: empty heroics, low comedy, and pointless death.
Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Trust me. I know what I want, and it’s right in front of me.”tHer eyes went wide as she softly gasped.tAnd then he pressed against her fully and kissed her.
Samantha Chase
A woman’s sex appeal has more to do with what other people think she has than what she actually has. It’s the relationship and reputation she has with herself that I find desirable.
Riley Murphy
Top question of the dying: "What made me sick?
Steven Magee
It's the problem with mistakes, they tend to linger.
Maria V. Snyder
Your life depends on a random stranger who could kill you, will probably disrespect you, and will most likely pay you much less than you deserve. But even those prospects are better than the ones you used to have. This is the life of los jornaleros – the day laborers.
Gustavo Arellano
Imperfection inspires invention, imagination, creativity. It stimulates. The more I feel imperfect, the more I feel alive.
Jhumpa Lahiri
Nature is too thin a screen the glory of the omnipresent God bursts through everywhere.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
God sovereignly controls every detail of your life, which should be a great comfort to you.
Jim George
To hope for nothing, to expect nothing, to demand nothing. This is analytical despair.
James Hillman
The worst thing about pills was that they worked. Without them, you might just adapt; medical optimism suspended you in a maintenance reality. He'd never known how sick he was until he'd gotten health insurance. The pill that really wanted inventing was the bitter one that cured you of optimism and made time go faster.
Tony Tulathimutte
If you can't trust others, nobody will be able to trust you.
Debasish Mridha
But Moby-Dick is the explanation of America. It’s not just a novel. It is a book of prophecy. It is the book. It is the book of America.
Robert Stone
It may be life is only worthwhile at moments. Perhaps that is all we ought to expect.
Sherwood Anderson
The day I died was just like any other idle Thursday.
Kelly Moran
It follows from all this that there is no technique that can be discovered and applied to make it possible for one to write. If you go to a school where there are classes in writing, these classes should not be to teach you how to write, but to teach you the limits and possibilities of words and the respect due them. One thing that is always with the writer—no matter how long he has written or how good he is—is the continuing process of learning how to write. As soon as the writer "learns to write," as soon as he knows what he is going to find, and discovers a way to say what he knew all along, or worse still, a way to say nothing, he is finished. If a writer is any good, what he makes will have its source in a realm much larger than that which his conscious mind can encompass and will always be a greater surprise to him than it can ever be to his reader.
Flannery O'Connor
The night I sat down to read Dostoievski for the first time was a most important event in my life, even more important than my first love. It was the first deliberate, conscious act which had significance for me; it changed the whole face of the world. Whether it is true that the clock stopped that moment when I looked up after the first deep gulp I don't know any more. But the world stopped dead for a moment, that I know. It was my first glimpse into the soul of a man, or shall I say simply that Dostoievski was the first man to reveal his soul to me?"Henry Miller
Henry Miller Shreve
The wisest has nothing, knows nothing, but loves everything.
Debasish Mridha
Your heart can't be in two places at once, at least not while maintaining a relationship.
Jordan Deen
A writer will divine a metaphor from a pattern on a dress, or a gesture, because sunsets have been done before.
Brandi L. Bates
was i leaving a life that, if snuffed out in a plane crash, would leave a sweet aroma representative of what matters most?
Andrew Palau
Don't forget who your heroes are, what they mean to you, and why they mean that to you.
Gale Harold
There was no 'I' in team, but there was meat in team. And we were all dead meat.
Jennifer Lane
I get the concept, all right -- like, why would God make me gay and then tell me it's a sin to be gay? But the freethinkers were confusing me. ' I don't get it. They have no religion, but they sort of believe in God, but they don't believe in faith?
Robin Reardon
Mankind needs more empathy.
Philip K Dick
The great majority of men are bundles of beginnings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You love your child for who the child is, not as an extension of your identity or as an example of your good parenting or even as a companion.
Robert Fritz
It's what happens. You love, then you lose, then you die. Even if you survive, you die.
J.J. Abrams
And it was knowing that I could still be ... still be afraid of everyhting, but not letting fear stop me from living
Jennifer L. Armentrout
I'd love to live forever except the person that made this game board has a tendency to occasionally knock some pieces off
Stanley Victor Paskavich
I think...I shall call ye Beauty, for I shall be yer beast.
Vonnie Davis
Will stared down at his hands. "My whole life wrecked, destroyed..." "You're seventeen," Magnus said. "You can't have wrecked a life you've barely lived.
Cassandra Clare
