Share a quote that resonate with you. It could be a line from a movie, tv show or book, a statement from an important person historic or contemporary, even words of wisdom from someone you know personally.

"f*ck perfection. just do it everyday"
forgot who said that exactly, but it resonates with someone like me who's too scared to try something out bcs i need to have it done perfectly on the first go (a workout routine, a hobby to pursue, an instrument / piece to learn, a song to make, etc.). i need to make mistakes so i can eventually see something i'm proud of. and that's ok. |
I just finished Breaking Bad, the protagonist Walter White had so many great quotes.
My favorite being: “You clearly don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks". (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMEq1mGpP5A). |

I don't know if this really counts as a quote but something I've heard before is that "time will always keep moving and no one can stop it" and it's influenced me in a few ways. I'm a very firm believer in trying to continue to tell people (and yourself) that things will end up alright if something goes wrong, no matter how bad it is, and that's helped me a lot. It's sort of like a message to enjoy what you have, and that the bad things will always pass. It's a comforting thought to me and my experience with that thought has helped me be way more optimistic than the super pessimistic high school freshman I once was.

Is it okay if I include my favorite bible quote?
"Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven" -Luke 6:37 |
"In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, 'Anyone can cook'. But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere."
- Anton Ego, Ratatouille nice reminder from Pixar to never underestimate someone's background. |
"If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anyrhing" -Unknown

I've got quite a few! Here are the ones I try to live by:
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone." — Sam Levenson People even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed. Never throw out anybody. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands: one for helping yourself, the other for helping others." — Sam Levenson The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows and the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.” — Audrey Hepburn |
