The world breaks us all. Afterward, some are stronger at the broken places." Ernest Hemingway- Farewell To Arms
Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And of course stability isn't nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand. - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
Promise me you'll always remember: you're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." -A.A. Milne, Winne the Pooh

Because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. -Anne Frank
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become. -Buddha
Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know. -Ernest Hemmingway
Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand. - Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit
No explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant. - Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
