“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” - Siddhārtha Gautama
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
"My days are past, my plans are torn apart, even the wishes of my heart." - Job 17:11
"There is no wealth like knowledge; no poverty like ignorance." - Ali ibn Abi-Talib
Sing like no one's listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching, and live like its heaven on earth.
The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated. -William James
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. -Stephen Vincent Benet
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease I'm a goddess on my knees When you hurt, when you suffer I'm your angel undercover I've been numb, I'm revived Can't say I'm not alive You know I wouldn't want it any other way
