Stop complaining and start living.

But love wasn't about sacrifice, and it wasn't about falling short of someone's expectations.

That someone else's life would not have been as rich without us here.

Jodi Picoult

Henceforth an individual solace dear; Part of my Soul I seek thee, and thee claim My other half: with that thy gentle hand Seisd mine, I yielded, and from that time see How beauty is excelld by manly grace.

John Milton

Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.

Martin Luther King Jr.
