Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.
George Edward Woodberry

I have been through a lot and have suffered a great deal. But I have had lots of happy moments as well. Every moment one lives is different from the other. The good, the bad, hardship, the joy, the tragedy, love, and happiness are all interwoven into one single, indescribable whole that is called life. You cannot separate the good from the bad. And perhaps there is no need to do so either.
Jacqueline “Jackie” Kennedy

The question that sometimes drives me hazy: Am I, or the others crazy?
Albert Einstein

It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.

William Shakespeare

There’s an old proverb that says you can’t choose your family. You take what the fates hand you. And like them or not, love them or not, understand them or not, you cope. Then there’s the school of thought that says the family you’re born into is simply a starting point. They feed you, and clothe you, and take care of you, until you’re ready to go out into the world and find your tribe.
Meredith Grey (Grey’s Anatomy)

Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.
John Lennon

Nothing is permanent in this wicked world. Not even our troubles.
