my first year of elementary school, my teacher gave me a picture of an

is a good morning, which I doubt," said he.
"Why, what's the matter?"
"Nothing, Pooh Bear, nothing. We can't all, and some of us don't.
That's all there is to it."
"Can't all what?" said Pooh, rubbing his nose.
"Gaiety. Song-and-dance. Here we go round the mulberry bush.

enjoy the warmth because we have been cold. We appreciate light because

we have known sorrow.

I
walk around the school hallways and look at the people. I look at the
teacher and wonder why they're here. If they like their jobs. Or us. And
I wonder how smart they were when they were 15. Not in a mean way. In
a curious way. It's like looking at all the students and wondering who
had their heart broken that day, and how they are able to cope with having
three quizzes and a book report on top of that. Or wondering who did the
heartbreaking. And wondering why. Especially since I know that if they
went to another school, the person who had their heart broken would have
had their heart broken by somebody else, so why does it have to be so
personal? ~ Perks Of Being A Wallflower
the
important thing is to not stop questioning, curiosity has its own reason
for existing -Albert Einstein

offers the promise of happiness, but life offers the realities of grief.

You
spend 12 years of your life trying to learn how to live, but everytime
you try to live in those 12 years you're wrong, Then everyone you've grown
to love is taken away and scattered. That's what they should teach you,
how to say goodbye
Sometimes
life gives you the test before you’ve had time to learn the lesson.
You
must understand the whole of life, not just part of it. That is why you
must read, you must look at the skies, you must sing, you must dance,
you must write poems, you must suffer, and you must understand. For all
that … is life
I
cannot say whether things will get better if we change; what I can say
is they must change if they are to get better. ~ G. C.
Lichtenberg
Sometimes
life can be a pain, but don't give up without a fight. - The
Ataris
The
nice thing about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being proved
right or pleasantly surprised.
If envy were tangible and had a shape, it would be the shape of a boomerang.
~Charley Reese
I
supposed what makes me most glad is that we all recognize each other in
this metaphysical space of silence and happening, and get some sense.
For a moment, that we are full of paradise without knowing it.
Life
gets harder as it passes you by, so never let things get to you and just
hold your head up high.

you know, see right through you; cause the world gets in your way. What’s
the point in all this screaming, your not listening anyway. –The

each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders
and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow
is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to
be encumbered with your old nonsense. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
what
we love to do, we find time to do -john l. spalding

will be the best u are -henry david thoreau
memory,
is a way of holding onto the things u love, the things u are, the things
u never want to lose -the wonder years
We
don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry
because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled
with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble
pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love,
these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O
life!...of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of
the faithless--of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these,
O me, O life? Answer. That you are here -- that life exists, and identity;
that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse." That
the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your
verse be? [Dead Poet's Society]

know we just dont remember the most significant moments of our lives while
their happening, back then i thought, well, they'll be other days, i didnt
realize that was the only day -field of dreams
Beginnings
are usually scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the stuff in the
middle that counts the most... you have to remember that when you find
yourself in the beginning. Just give hope a chance to float up. -
Hope Floats
Hiding
is no more than an invitation to be found
'Let
someone else get killed!' 'Suppose everyone on our side felt that way?'
'Well then I'd certainly be a damned fool to feel any other way, wouldn't
I?' 'Englishmen are dying for England, American's are dying for America,
Germans are dying for Germany, Russians are dying for Russia. There are
now fifty or sixty countries fighting in this war. Surely so many countries
can all be worth dying for?' 'Anything worth living for,' said Nately,
'is worth dying for.' 'And anything worth dying for,' answered the old
man, 'is certainly worth living for.' -Catch 22
Never
tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise
you with their ingenuity.
— George S. Patton
All
the water in the world no matter how hard it tries, can never sink the
smallest ship, unless it gets inside.. And all the evil in the world the
blackest kind of sin can never hurt you unless you let it in
The
sky isn't always blue, the sun doesn't always shine. It's all right to
fall apart sometimes. ~ Robert Miles
Strong
women are beautiful. They weather the storms of life and grow in brilliance,
wisdom, joy, and compassion. They don't give up, they don't give out,
they don't give in. They simply continue to give
