I'm a person that carries everything that happened to me in my past, with me into the future. I refuse to let it make me bitter. I still completely believe in love and I remain open to anything that will happen to me.

A very wise man once told me that you can't look back-you just have to put the past behind you, and find something better in your future.

Jodi Picoult

You are the gold and Love is within your heart.

I like movies that pop, that have a little bit of candy on, that freedom to have a little bit of extra fun, but are rooted in real behaviour. Rooted in cause and effect, never violating reality.

Tony Gilroy

Choose to do more than just exist; choose to live.

Steve Maraboli

Black men don't like to be called 'boys,' but women accept being called 'girls.'

Marilyn Monroe

Laughter is the closest thing to the grace of God.

Karl Barth

Her forehead was a maze of anxious little grooves, from a lifetime of wondering about whether everyone within range was OK.

Tana French

I heard the bells on Christmas Day. Their old familiar carols play. And wild and sweet the words repeat. Of peace on earth goodwill to men.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Literary criticism can be no more than a reasoned account of the feeling produced upon the critic by the book he is criticizing. Criticism can never be a science: it is, in the first place, much too personal, and in the second, it is concerned with values that science ignores. The touchstone is emotion, not reason. We judge a work of art by its effect on our sincere and vital emotion, and nothing else. All the critical twiddle-twaddle about style and form, all this pseudoscientific classifying and analyzing of books in an imitation-botanical fashion, is mere impertinence and mostly dull jargon.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

We should often blush for our very best actions, if the world did but see all the motives upon which they were done.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld
