Freedom is like birth. Till we are fully free, we are slaves. Freedom received through the efforts of other, however benevolent, cannot be retained when such effort is withdrawn. No charter of freedom will be worth looking at which does not ensure the same of freedom for the minorities as for the majority. No society can possibly be built on a denial of individual freedom. True non-violence should mean a complete freedom from illwill and anger, and an overflowing love for all. This freedom from all attachment is the realization of God as truth.

~Mahatma Ghandi~

You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It’s just matter of paying attention to this miracle.

~Paulo Coelho~

Grown ups like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never ask question about what really matters. They never as,”What does his voice sound like?”, “What games does he like best?”, “Does he collect butterflies?”. They ask, “How old is he?”, “How many brothers does he have?”, “How much does he weigh?, “How much manoey does his father make?” – Only then do they think, they know him.

~Antoine de Saint-Exuperry, The Little Prince”

The loneliest people are the kindest. The saddest people smile the brightest. The most damaged people are the wisest. All because they do not wish to see anyone else suffer the way they do.

How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned.

~Alexander Pope~

All the ways you could be, that’s me. I look like you wanna look. I fuck like you wanna fuck. I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.

~Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club~

There’s always a siren, singing you to shipwreck. Stay away from these rocks, we’d be a walking disaster (don’t reach out, don’t reach out). Just cause you feel it doesn’t mean it’s there (there’s someone on your shoulder).

~Thom Yorke, There There~

Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel it’s necessary to show, because no one else seems to be showing them.

~Fiona Apple~

I’d rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.

~Kurt Cobain~  

I’m the one that has to die when it’s time for me to die. So, let me live my life, the way I want to.

~Jimi Hendrix~

The winds that sometimes take something we love, are the same that bring us something we learn to love. Therefore we should no cry about something that was taken from us, but, yes, love what we have been given. Because what is really ours is never gone forever.

~Bob Marley~
