| I know this is sorta depressing, but I just read it and I could totally relate, especially right now.

| Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
- Charles W. Eliot
What is defeat? Nothing but education; nothing but the first step to something better.
- Wendell Phillips
When life throws you lemons, throw them back harder.
These isn't exactly inspirational quotes but I found it funny

I have a grip on reality--just not this particular one.
Didn't I meet you in some other hallucination??
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.

Oh my god, that is like my all time favriote quote! I've been saying it for years and still do.
Hokay, so this quote is part of a poem I wrote one emo day in June:
"It is better to know one's fate in hell than to worry of one's future in limbo"

| This is a quote from Tony Blair, England's Prime Minister. He is talking about the US, and why he supports America so much::
"The measure of a country is not how many people want in, but how many want out."
TRUE TRUE TRUE

Isn't that the quote posted on the wall of (I forget the name) that place where all the people poisened themselves or something for some religious suicide? Creepy story...
A favorite quote:
“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.” -- Erica Jong

| from I Am Legend
Neville: [talking to Anna about Bob Marley] He had this idea. It was kind of a virologist idea. He believed that you could cure racism and hate... literally cure it, by injecting music and love into people's lives. When he was scheduled to perform at a peace rally, a gunman came to his house and shot him down. Two days later he walked out on that stage and sang. When they asked him why - He said, "The people, who were trying to make this world worse... are not taking a day off. How can I? Light up the darkness."

| Things don’t go wrong and break your heart so you can become bitter and give up they break you down and build you up so you can be all that you were intended to be
“I think there are crossroads in our lives when we make grand, sweeping decisions without even realizing it. Like scanning the newspaper headline at a red light, and therefore missing the rogue ban that jumps the line of traffic and causes an accident. Entering a coffee shop on a whim and meeting the man you will marry one day, while he’s digging for change at the counter.” Jodi Picoult My Sister’s Keeper
“Shame is five-fingered” Jodi Picoult My Sister’s Keeper
“Shooting stars are not stars at all. They’re just rocks that enter the atmosphere and catch fire under friction. What we wish on, when we see one, is only a trail of debris.” Jodi Picoult My Sister’s Keeper
