Life 42....

It's difficult to ever go back to the same places or people. You turn away, even for a moment, and when you turn back around, everything's changed. -Gabrielle Zevin, Elsewhere

I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do. - Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

Time has a wonderful way of showing us what really matters. - Margaret Peters

Failure is a fantastic teacher. -Forces of Nature

No ending can be right, because it shouldn't be over at all. The magic is not supposed to go away. - Stephen King on HP & The Deathly Hallows

The only people you need in your life are the ones that proved they needed you in theirs.

It made her wonder if you could know a person only at a single moment in time, because a year from now or a day from now, he might be different. It made her wonder if everyone reinvented himself or herself, if that was as natural as other animals shedding their skin. -Jodi Picoult, The Tenth Circle

You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it. - Robin Williams

People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone. The past is full of life, eager to irritate us, provoke and insult us, tempt us to destroy or repaint it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past. -Milan Kundera

Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience. -Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

I think catch and release fisherman are heartless weenies. I think putting a fish through agony for nothing more than your own entertainment is just plain cruel. I think if you're going to torture a living thing if, you're going to make it look into the eyes of its maker, face its own puny little place in the universe, then, for God's sake, have the decency to eat it! -Catch & Release

We have all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the power we choose to act on. That's who we really are.-HP & The Order of Phoenix

Be my guest; rain on my parade. But I have the biggest freaking umbrella you have ever seen.

Forgiving & forgetting are fused together, flip sides of the same coin and yet they couldn't both exist at the same time. Choosing one meant that you sacrificed seeing the other. -Jodi Picoult, The Tenth Circle

It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are. - E. E. Cummings

I think the one thing we never stop looking for is acceptance. Acceptance of our own shortcomings. Acceptance that some things are gonna be what they're gonna be. -Scrubs

Life doesn't care about your vision. You just gotta roll with it -Knocked Up

Summertime, I think, is a collective unconscious. We all remember the notes that made up the song of the ice cream man; we all know what it feels like to brand our thighs on a playground slide that's heated up like a knife in a fire; we all have lain on our backs with our eyes closed and our hearts beating across the surface of our lids, hoping that this day will stretch just a little longer than the last one, when in fact it's all going in the other direction. -Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper
