Goodbye is only painful when you know you can never say hello again.

I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken -- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.

I don't miss him, I miss who I thought he was.

I miss you a little, I guess you could say, a little too much, a little too often, and a little more each day.

True love? I used to believe it existed, but when you’ve had your heart torn out and thrown on the floor, you just don’t care anymore. Ask me why I keep on loving.

The problem is that as much as I can't force you to love me, I can't force myself to stop loving you.

I hate you, and then I love you. It's like I want to throw you off a cliff, then rush to the bottom to catch you.

I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain. I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end. I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought that I’d see you again.

Oh, I shouldn’t care or wonder where and how you are. But I can’t hide this hurt inside my broken heart. I’m fighting back emotions that I’ve never fought before, ‘cause I’m not supposed to love you anymore.

I could fill a thousand pages telling you how I felt and still you would not understand. So now I leave without a sound, except that of my heart shattering as it hits the ground.

The future becomes the present, the present becomes the past, and the past turns into everlasting regret if you don't plan for it.

Regret is so quiet.

While it's tempting to play it safe, the more we're willing to risk, the more alive we are. In the end, what we regret most are the chances we never took.

Tears are like kisses, the only real ones are the ones you can't hold back.

The scars are nothing compared to the pain that put them there.

If he was stupid enough to walk away, be smart enough to let him go.

And I wait...
For an endless song that never starts,
For a cure to the age-old broken heart.

Time heals and reveals.

The only true painful good-byes are the ones that are never said and never explained.

Life is good and so is time. Love every moment of it and you will be fine.

Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.

After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security,
And you begin to learn that kisses arent contracts and presents aren't promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open,
With the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads on today
Because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So plant your garden and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really are strong,
And you really do have worth.

They say follow your heart. But when your heart is in so many pieces, which way are you to follow?

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill because they pissed me off.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

I know what it's like to feel alone.
And, that's why I stay alone,
because I never want to feel alone again.

Men are like a deck of cards.
You'll find the occasional king,
but most are jacks.

Into this mysterious universe we are born, with no apparent set of instructions, no maps or equations, no signs or guideposts, nothing but our equally unfathomable instincts, intuitions, and reasoning abilities to tell us where we came from, why we are here, and what we are supposed to do. What we do possess- perhaps it is the key to our survival as a species - is an almost unquenchable need to know.

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
but whips and chains excite me!

The only way to get over someone is to hate them or replace them.

The world is round and the place which seems like the end may also be the beginning.

How to be alone

I was trying to type "bitch" into my phone, and the dictionary apparently did not know the word. It kept giving me "church". Interesting huh?

I wonder why though. I'm sure "dog" is in there, why not "bitch"? Corby Pro is sexist!

Happy 63rd Birthday India!

Best scene ever

DC: Be Careful What You Wish For

My name is Dawson Leery.
I'm feeling kind of weary.
Today is my birthday.
It all looks a little bleery.
The girl that I cared for,
Left me and ran away,
Straight into the arms of,
a guy that turned out to be gay!
I got the blues!
Yeah. Today I woke up feeling like I was born to lose.
Yeah I got the blues.
Somedays you're born to lose!
Here's my friend Andie, and she's going to sing you a song because she's got the blues.

My name is Andie.
And my brother's the one that's gay.
My other brother died.
And my daddy ran away!
But I'm still Andie.
And my boyfriend makes me randy.
His name is Pacey,
And my mom's gone completely crazy!
Yeah, I've got the blues!

Oh, I've been restless, hopeless and confused.
This girl that I told you about;
she's been on the move.
She's at my surprise party where everyone I know is right now.
And when I show up late they're all gonna have a cow!
Yeah I got the blues.
I swear sometimes we were born to lose!
Andie: No, brother man, we got the blues!
Dawson & Andie: We got the blues!
Sometimes you, you were born to lose.
Ohhh yeah!

The Count of Monte Cristo

We must put madmen with madmen.

Joy has that peculiar effect that at times it oppresses us just as much as grief.

One is always in a hurry to be happy, for when one has been suffering for a long time, it is difficult to believe in one's good fortune.

He was one of those men who are born with a pen behind his ears and an ink-pot in place of a heart.

I have lost all that bound me to life; now death smiles on me as a nurse smiles on the child she is about to rock to sleep; now welcome death.

"Die? Oh, no!" he cried out, "it would hardly have been worth while to live, to suffer so much and then to die. I wish to reconquer the happiness that has been taken from me. Before I die, I have my executioners to punish, and possibly also some friends to recompense. Yet they will forget me here and I shall only leave this dungeon in the same way that Faria has done."

The sea is the cemetery of the Chateau d'If.

The wiry youth with calm, happy features had become a well-built, muscular man with fire and deep sadness in his dark eyes.

Frailty, thy name is woman!

Now, farewell to kindness, humanity, gratitude. Farewell to all sentiments which rejoice the heart. I have played the part of Providence in recompensing the good. May the god of vengeance now permit me to punish the wicked.

Life is too short to stress yourself with people who don't even deserve to be an issue in your life.

Did you hear about Justin Bieber? He fell off a ladder trying to reach puberty.

Justin Bieber- "Oh man.. that chick is a dude?"

Can we pretend that goldfish, in the fishbowl, are like fairly godparents, I could really use a wish right now.

Screw a Wish...I could really use a drink right now.

Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts. Others come into our lives and make us wanna leave footprints on their face.

going downstairs to pee then forgetting why you when down there grabbing a pop going upstairs take a drink of pop then remembering you need to go pee.

Standing at the end of a beach letting the water dig your feet in the ground & pulling them out after they get covered by sand.

Somebody fix me.

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

So adorable!

I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over, I want to know right now what will it be.

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for I.
You know that if we are to stay alive.
Then see the peace in every eye.

She had two babies. One was six months, one was three
In the war of '44.
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
When she thought it was God calling her.
Oh would her son grow to know his father?

I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?

"People always leave."

Seems to be the story of my life for more than an year now.

Breathe in, breathe out

Take it 1 day at a time.

This too shall pass.

For your final question, Miss Potter, please tell us what words of advice you would bestow upon today's youth.

I'd like to tell today's youth that no matter where life takes you, big cities, small towns, you'll inevitably come across small minds. People who think that they're better than you are. People who think that material things, or being pretty or popular automatically makes you a worth while human being. I'd like to tell today's youth that none of these things matter unless you have strength of character, integrity, sense of pride, and if you're lucky enough to have any of these things... don't ever sell them. Don't ever sell out. So when you meet a person for the first time, please don't judge them by their station on life, because, who knows, that person just might end up being your best friend. Thank you.
