Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
—Dr. Seuss
You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, “I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.” You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
—Eleanor Roosevelt
I often think that the night is more alive and richly coloured than the day.
—Vincent Van Gogh
Accept everything about yourself-I mean everything. You are you, and that is the beginning and the end- no apologies, no regrets.
—Henry Kissinger
Who is the happier man, he who has braved the storm of life and lived or he who has stayed securely on shore and merely existed?
—Hunter S. Thompson
At times the world can seem an unfriendly and sinister place, but believe us when we say there is much more good in it than bad. All you have to do is look hard enough. And what might seem to be a series of unfortunate events, may, in fact, be the first steps of a journey.
—Lemony Snicket
I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel alone.
—Robin Williams
It’s being here now that’s important. There’s no past and there’s no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can’t re-live it; and we can hope for the future, but we don’t know if there is one.
—George Harrison
You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.
—Winston Churchill
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no-one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
—Marilyn Monroe
