“The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.” – Walter Bagehot

“I always wanted a happy ending… now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.” – Gilda Radner

"Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. You must look into that storm and shout as you did in Rome, "Do your worst, for I will do mine!" Then the fates will know you as Albert Mondego the man!" -The Count Of Monte Cristo

"I know our music isn't mainstream, I just love doing it. It's like my photography. I know there's not much demand for blurry photography taken while running - but, you know, who cares? The world's a playground. You know that when you're a kid, but somewhere along the way everyone forgets it." 

-Yes Man

"Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky." -Rainer Maria Rilke

"There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on the path? Will others tell you who you are or will you label yourself? Will you be haunted by your choices or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or to simply give up." -One Tree Hill

"Because it's only when you're tested that you truly discover who you are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the heartache and fear of what life has."

-One Tree Hill

"Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will."

"Every once in a while people step up, they rise above themselves. Sometimes they surprise you, and sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes, it can push pretty hard, but if you look close enough you find hope in the words of children, in the bars of a song and in the eyes of someone you love. And if you're lucky, and if you're the luckiest person in the entire planet, the person you love decides to love you back."

-One Tree Hill
