"You should act, be brave, seize life by the scruff of the neck. Believe me, little one, you should only regret inactivity, indecisiveness, hesitation. You shouldn't regret actions or decisions, even if they occasionally end in sadness and regret."

- Andrzej Sapkowski, Time of Contempt

"I was a very lonely child and it's funny but the first word that comes to my head is "starved". I felt starved of affection, starved of love and I felt that it wasn't OK to ask for it. Maybe there was a sense that if I deserved it, it would be there. There must be something I'd done which meant I didn't deserve it."

- Carol Lee, To Die For

"You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving. The great acts of love are done by those who are habitually performing small acts of kindness. We pardon to the extent that we love. Love is knowing that even when you are alone, you will never be lonely again and the great happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved, loved for ourselves and even loved in spite of ourselves."

-Victor Hugo, Les miserables

"I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be."

One day I'll find myself less troubled. I would look myself in the mirror less disappointed. I won't wake up with dried tears and puffy eyes. I won't postpone the workout schedule I've planned whenever I had a constant urge to change my life. I wouldn't have to build the courage everytime I stand up for myself because it'll become effortless. I would be the person I often look out for in a crowd.

"Everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always. All the time. That story makes you what you are. We build ourselves out of that story."
