"They say you die twice.
 Once when you stop breathing, 
and a second time, a bit later on, 
when somebody says your name 
for the last time"
Bansky

Before Sunrise (1995)

"I believe that if there's any kind of God, it wouldn't be any of us. Not you, or me, but just this little space in between. If the'res any kind of magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something. I know, it's almost impossible to succeed, but who cares really? The answer must be in the attempt"

Hello 2013

I do not have superior intelligence or faultless looks.

I do not captivate a room or run a mile in under six minutes.

I only succeeded because I was still working 

after everyone else went to bed.

Greg Evans

I've never loved anybody this way. 

Never looked at a woman and though, if civilization fails, if the world ends, 

I'll still understand what God meant.

Wolf (1994)

I call her the devil 'cause she makes me wanna sin,

and every time she knocks I can't help but let her in.

here and now

Isn't it weird to think that every person you walk by has a past they may or may not be proud of and a family they might be close to or far from and a lover they're either with or apart from and a name and a personality and they might be having the greatest day of their life or the worst day? We probably walk past hundreds of people a day and never one stop to thing what they're going through, what their life may be like. We're too focused on our own. (BW)

You didn't catch my eye right away, I won't deny this

but once you did, I sewar I couldn't look away.

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life:

It goes on

- Robert Frost - 

Things to worry about:

Worry about courage

Worry about cleanliness

Worry about efficiency

Worry about horsemanship

Thing not to worry about:

Don't worry about popular opinion

Don't worry about dolls

Don't worry about the past

Don't worry about the future

Don't worry about growing up

Don't worry about anybody getting ahead of you

Don't worry about triumph

Don't worry about failure unless it comes through your own fault

Don't worry about mosquitoes

Don't worry about flies

Don't worry about insects in general

Don't worry about boys

Don't worry about disappointments

Don't worry about pleasures

Don't worry about satisfactions

- F. Scott Fritzgerald, letter to his 11 year old daughter (1933)

and still you're in my way

I didn't want to kiss you goodbye, that was the trouble;
I wanted to kiss you goodnight. 
And there's a lot of difference. 

Ernest Hemingway

I'll keep them still

So I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. 

And maybe we'll never know most of them.

Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

gotta love it

This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don't like something, change it. If you don't like your job, quit. If you don't have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop. They will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over alanyzing, all emotions are relative. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Life is simple. Open your mind, arms and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once. Seize them. Life is about people you meet, and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating. Life is short: live your dream and share your passion.

for the sake of it

Paris, 1952. Paul Almasy.

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.

Guilda Radner

don't ever set me free

- I have to tell you, you're making me nervous 

in a way I am not really familiar with.

Prime (2005)

everything you didn't do

Twenty years form now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the things you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain

just stay

If you want to know where your heart is, 

look to where your mind goes when it wanders.

words to live by

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, 

since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

2 Corinthians 4:18

colours of the wind

You are the books you read, the films you watch, the music you listen to, the people you meet, the dreams you have, the conversations you engage in. You are what you take from these. You are the sound of the ocean, the breath of fresh air, the brightest light and the darkest corner. You are a collective of every experience you have had in your life. You are every single day. So drown yourself in a sea of knowledge and existence. Let the words run through your veins and let the colours fill your mind.

UNKNOWN

at first sight

We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, 
before a word has been spoken.

Fyodor Dostoyevski, Crime and Punishment

sleep through the static

Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning 

and you think, I'm not going to make it, 

but you laugh inside- remember all the times you've felt that way.

Charles Bukowski
