Saying "Fuck it" is honestly more motivating than "You can do this" or any other well thought out plan to get something done. Because Fuck it accepts the possibility of failure.

Peace of mind comes from not wanting to change others.

No one will know the violence it took to become this gentle.

As long as you have the courage to admit mistakes, things can be turned around.

There may be more beautiful times, but this one is ours.

Have enough courage to trust love one more time. And always one more time.

Forgive yourself for not knowing what you didn’t know before you learned it.

Maya Angelou (via amargedom)

[hypocryptic]

Start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often. But if take you take some risks, step up when the times are toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the downtrodden and never, ever give up — if you do these things, then the next generation and the generations that follow will live in a world far better than the one we have today. And what started here will indeed have changed the world — for the better.

Adm. William H. McRaven, UT Commencement Speech (2014)

[hypocryptic]

We ought to stand up and look the world frankly in the face. We ought to make the best we can of the world, and if it is not so good as we wish, after all it will still be better than what these others have made of it in all these ages. A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past, or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men. It needs a fearless outlook and a free intelligence. It needs hope for the future, not looking back all the time towards a past that is dead, which we trust will be far surpassed by the future that our intelligence can create.

B. Russel, Why I Am Not a Christian

To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.

Mary Oliver, from “In Blackwater Woods” (via oofpoetry)

[hypocryptic]

We [scientists] take it for granted that it is perfectly consistent to be unsure, that it is possible to live and not know. But I don’t know whether everyone realizes this is true. Our freedom to doubt was born out of a struggle against authority in the early days of science. It was a very deep and strong struggle: permit us to question - to doubt - to not be sure.

The Value of Science, R. Feynman

Evolution… forged the entirety of sentient life on this planet using only one tool… the mistake.

He was right, dead right, as he sped along, But he's just as dead as if he were wrong.
