Waiting is one of the great arts.

People don’t alter. They may with enormous difficulty modify themselves, but they never really change.

I believe that an author who cannot control her characters is, like a mother who cannot control her children, not really fit to look after them.

Beware of anger. It is the most difficult to remove of all the hindrances. But it is the alcohol of the body, you know, and the devil of it is that it deadens the perceptions.

When the habitually even-tempered suddenly fly into a passion, that explosion is apt to be more impressive than the outburst of the most violent amongst us.

If one cannot command attention by one’s admirable qualities one can at least be a nuisance.

[shareaquote]

I have liked, I have loved, I have been hurt. I have hurt people. I miss people that I shouldn’t even think about anymore. I ignore people that I should give importance to. I have made mistakes in the past and I have learned to live with them. I’ve learned to accept people for who they are. I have suffered I’ve cried I have faced rejection I don’t even want to be alive, but the thing is I have a million reasons to be alive and I just haven’t found them yet. I fall. I rise. I am not perfect, but I am who I am. This is me.
