You can’t live your life for other people. You’ve got to do what’s right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.

Great men are not born great, they grow great. 

Only if you find peace within yourself will you find true connection with others. 

It’s what you do right now that makes a difference. 

“To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, to draw closer, to find each other and to feel. That is the purpose of life.” 

Love cannot be found where it doesn’t exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does. 

Why are you trying so hard to fit in when you were born to stand out? 

Do, or do not. There is no “try”. 

Me, I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it’s not some place you can look for because it’s not where you go. It’s how you feel for a moment in your life when you’re a part of something and if you find that moment, it lasts forever.

My momma always said, “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get.”

I know what I have to do now, I’ve got to keep breathing because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring? 

We are who we choose to be. 

I don’t regret the things I’ve done, but those I did not do.
