Do me a favor… Stand up, walk to wherever the nearest window is, and just look outside. You may not know this, but there’s an entire planets-worth of summers, friends, sunsets, street lamps, songs, late nights, great films, and night skies waiting for you. Your life is as amazing as you want it to be, but first, you have to let it be that way.

CHAD SUGG

If you can not be a poet, be the poem.

DAVID CARRADINE

It’s not the men in your life that counts, but the life in your men.

MAE WEST

Guarde esse recado: alguma coisa sempre faz falta. Guarde sem dor, embora doa, e em segredo

Caio Fernando Abreu

What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what gets you out of bed in the mornings, what you do with your evenings, how you spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.”

Father Pedro Arrupe

“For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.”

Virginia Woolf

On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand chose

Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses

On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud

Que de nos chagrins il s'en fait des manteaux

Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit

Que tu m'aimais encore

C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore

Serais ce possible alors

Disseram-me que as nossas vidas não valem grande coisa,

Elas passam em instantes como murcham as rosas.

Disseram-me que o tempo que desliza é um bastardo

Que das nossas tristezas ele faz seus investimentos

No entanto alguém me disse...

Que você ainda me amava,

Foi alguém que me disse que você ainda me amava.

Seria possível então?

Quelqu'un M'a Dit - Carla Bruni

Dear Paris,

Wait for me. We're going to meet. I promise.

Love,

Me.



Sometimes, the most real things in life are the things that can't be seen.

THE POLAR EXPRESS

We have two eyes and just one tongue, which means we need to look twice and talk once. We have 2 ears and just one mouth, so we need to listen more than we talk. We have two hands and one stomach, so we need to work twice as much as we eat. We have two major brain parts, the left and the right, and one heart, so we can think twice but love only one. Isn’t it amazing that our body parts remind us how to live right?

Life isn’t about how many people call you and it’s not about who you’ve dated, are dating, or haven’t dated at all. It’s not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn’t about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that. But life is about who you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness, and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not for what they have. Most of all, it’s about living your life to touch someone else’s.

You know that an end signals a new beginning, right?



If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.

Peace Pilgrim

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

Neil Gaiman
