“ I think about love more than anyone really should. I am constantly amazed by its sheer power to alter and define our lives. It was Shakespeare who also said “love is blind”. Now that is something I know to be true. For some quite inexplicably, love fades; for others love is simply lost. But then of course love can also be found, even if just for the night. And then, there’s another kind of love: the cruelest kind. The one that almost kills its victims. Its called unrequited love. Of that I am an expert. Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other. But what about the rest of us? What about our stories, those of us who fall in love alone? We are the victims of the one sided affair. We are the cursed of the loved ones. We are the unloved ones, the walking wounded. The handicapped without the advantage of a great parking space!
— The Holiday






“ Someday someone might come into your life and love you the way you’ve always wanted. If your someday was yesterday, learn. If your someday is tomorrow, hope. If your someday is today, cherish.







“ A woman has strengths that amaze me, she can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens, she holds happiness, love and opinions, she smiles when she feels like screaming, she sings when she feels like crying, cries when shes happy, and laughs when shes afraid, her love is unconditional, there’s only one thing wrong with her and that is that sometimes she forgets what she is worth.

"As pessoas geralmente são despropositadas e egoístas... Perdoe-os mesmo assim. Se for bondoso, as pessoas o acusarão de segundas intenções. Seja bom mesmo assim. Se for honesto, as pessoas podem lhe enganar. Seja honesto mesmo assim. Se encontrar a felicidade, as pessoas podem se tornar invejosas... Seja feliz mesmo assim. A diferença que fizer hoje pode ser esquecida amanhã... Faça a diferença mesmo assim. Dê ao mundo o melhor que você tem, e isso pode não ser o bastante. Dê o seu melhor mesmo assim. Porque no final, isso é entre você e Deus. Nunca foi entre você e as pessoas de qualquer modo."
Madre Tereza

“ You ask me what I want this year, and I’ll try to make this kind and clear, just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days.

“ ‘i love you but i can’t be with you’ is the line of a coward. it should be, ‘i love you and i’ll do everything just to be with you because being with you is worth it.’ if you really want someone, there is no excuse.

“ I have never heard of a man described as lucky…and yet in my career I have been told a million times how lucky I’ve been. Women who have achieved are not lucky. We are lucky if we don’t fall out of the sky in an airplane or if a plank doesn’t hit us in the head. But at work we are ballsy, hardworking. We are magnificent.
— Sheila Nevins.

“ We have to sweep today’s possibility under tomorrow’s rug until we can’t anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves like Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying.
Ellen Pompeo, Grey’s Anatomy
