Life is not measured by the breaths we take but by the moments in life that take our breaths away

"In 900 years of time and space I've never met anyone who wasn't important before"
The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and... bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things or make them unimportant."
When you're a kid, they tell you it's all, "Grow up. Get a job. Get married. Get a house. Have a kid, and that's it." [sighs] But the truth is: the world is so much stranger than that. It's so much darker. And so much madder. [grins] And so much better

Here is one of my favourite Thelema quotes :
"We of Thelema say that ‘Every man and every woman is a star.’ We do not fool and flatter women; we do not despise and abuse them. To us a woman is Herself, absolute, original, independent, free, self-justified, exactly as a man is.
We dare not thwart Her Going, Goddess she! We arrogate no right upon Her will; we claim not to deflect Her development, to dispose of Her desires, or to determine Her destiny. She is Her own sole arbiter...
We do not want Her as a slave; we want Her free and royal, whether Her love fight death in our arms by night, or Her loyalty ride by day beside us in the Charge of the Battle of Life."
"If I believe in something, I fight like hell for it" Steve McQueen
Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that you can make anything happen...
LL - The tenth Doctor?? I'm pretty sure he says the second one to Donna when she is upset about her general existence - I wish I had a Doctor in my life :)
*brownies for you* Yep yep I stole it from doctor who :-) Quote for today: “I don’t want excuses. I know what you’re up against. We’re all of us up against something. So you better make up your mind, because until you have the balls to look me straight in the eye and tell me this is all you deserve, I am not letting you fail. Even if that means coming to your house every night until you finish the work. I see who you are. Do you understand me? I can see you. And you are not failing.” – Erin Gruwell (Hilary Swank)HappilyExperimenting wrote:

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And...
Always look on the bright side of life (whistle)
Always look on the light side of life (whistle)
If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
Laugh until your body aches,
Cry until you start to shake,
Live like the world is yours to take and love as though your heart won't break......
We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid, so are regrets!
