And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can''t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.'), | |

(53, 'Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you''ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can''t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it''s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn''t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day''s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there''s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you''re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there''s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that''s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.'), | |

(59, 'People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.'), | |

(67, 'For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.'), | |

(69, 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.'), | |
(70, 'I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.'), | |

(79, 'If you can''t explain it to a six year old, you don''t understand it yourself.'), | |
(80, 'Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.'), | |
(81, 'We read to know that we are not alone.'), | |
(82, 'To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one''s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived-this is to have succeeded.'), | |
(83, 'Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.Life is beauty, admire it.Life is a dream, realize it.Life is a challenge, meet it.Life is a duty, complete it.Life is a game, play it.Life is a promise, fulfill it.Life is sorrow, overcome it.Life is a song, sing it.Life is a struggle, accept it.Life is a tragedy, confront it.Life is an adventure, dare it.Life is luck, make it.Life is too precious, do not destroy it.Life is life, fight for it.'), | |
(84, 'Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.'), | |
(85, 'Logic will get you from A to Z; imagination will get you everywhere.'), | |
(86, 'Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.'), | |
(87, 'I''m not upset that you lied to me, I''m upset that from now on I can''t believe you.'), | |

(93, 'I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.'), | |
(94, 'If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.'), | |
(95, 'I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.'), | |
(96, 'All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn''t hurt.'), | |
(97, 'This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you''re going to mess up sometimes, it''s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you''re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they''ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, somg go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they''re your true best friends. Don''t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they''ll come and go too. And babve, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can''t give up becuase if you give up, you''ll never find your soul mate. You''ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn''t mean you''re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don''t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life''s a beautiful thing and there''s so much to smile about.'), | |

(118, 'You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She''s not perfect - you aren''t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don''t hurt her, don''t change her, don''t analyze and don''t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she''s not there.'), | |
(119, 'I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.'), | |
(120, 'People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that''s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you''ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave. A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...'), | |
(121, 'The story so far:In the beginning the Universe was created.This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.'), | |

(123, 'I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.'), | |

(151, 'Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ''Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won''t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It''s not just in some of us; it''s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.'), | |

Why is that?'' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even ''lame'' is kind of lame. Saying ''You''re lame'' is like saying ''You walk with a limp.'' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he''s done all right for himself.'), | |

Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.

I believe that anyone who claims to know what''s going on will lie about the little things too. I believe in absolute honesty and sensible social lies.

Date a girl who has a list of books she wants to read, who has had a library card since she was twelve.Find a girl who reads. You''ll know that she does because she will always have an unread book in her bag. She''s the one lovingly looking over the shelves in the bookstore, the one who quietly cries out when she has found the book she wants. You see that weird chick sniffing the pages of an old book in a secondhand book shop? That''s the reader. They can never resist smelling the pages, especially when they are yellow and worn.She''s the girl reading while waiting in that coffee shop down the street. If you take a peek at her mug, the non-dairy creamer is floating on top because she''s kind of engrossed already. Lost in a world of the author''s making. Sit down. She might give you a glare, as most girls who read do not like to be interrupted. Ask her if she likes the book.Buy her another cup of coffee.Let her know what you really think of Murakami. See if she got through the first chapter of Fellowship. Understand that if she says she understood James Joyce''s Ulysses she''s just saying that to sound intelligent. Ask her if she loves Alice or she would like to be Alice.It''s easy to date a girl who reads. Give her books for her birthday, for Christmas, for anniversaries. Give her the gift of words, in poetry and in song. Give her Neruda, Pound, Sexton, Cummings. Let her know that you understand that words are love. Understand that she knows the difference between books and reality but by god, she''s going to try to make her life a little like her favorite book. It will never be your fault if she does.She has to give it a shot somehow.Lie to her. If she understands syntax, she will understand your need to lie. Behind words are other things: motivation, value, nuance, dialogue. It will not be the end of the world.Fail her. Because a girl who reads knows that failure always leads up to the climax. Because girls who read understand that all things must come to end, but that you can always write a sequel. That you can begin again and again and still be the hero. That life is meant to have a villain or two.Why be frightened of everything that you are not? Girls who read understand that people, like characters, develop. Except in the Twilight series.If you find a girl who reads, keep her close. When you find her up at 2 AM clutching a book to her chest and weeping, make her a cup of tea and hold her. You may lose her for a couple of hours but she will always come back to you. She''ll talk as if the characters in the book are real, because for a while, they always are.You will propose on a hot air balloon. Or during a rock concert. Or very casually next time she''s sick. Over Skype.You will smile so hard you will wonder why your heart hasn''t burst and bled out all over your chest yet. You will write the story of your lives, have kids with strange names and even stranger tastes. She will introduce your children to the Cat in the Hat and Aslan, maybe in the same day. You will walk the winters of your old age together and she will recite Keats under her breath while you shake the snow off your boots.Date a girl who reads because you deserve it.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.We''ve learned how to make a living, but not a life.

A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...Remember, to spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn''t cost a cent.Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it.

I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner.''"What? You''re making that up!"No, true story. And I said, ''A coal miner? Why did she want a coal miner if she could''ve had you?''

You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don''t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being "in love", which any fool can do.

All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you''ll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine.

In other words, loneliness is something I''ve never been bothered with because I''ve always had this terrible itch for solitude.

(1529, 'Stop fighting me!" he said, trying to pull on the arm he held.He was in a precarious position himself, straddling the rail as he tried to lean over far enough to get me and actually hold onto me."Let go of me!" I yelled back.But he was too strong and managed to haul most of me over the rail, enough so that I wasn''t in total danger of falling again.See, here''s the thing.

He was just that fast and that good. That was why I was holding my stake in the hand that was dangling free.I looked him in the eye. "I will always love you."Then I plunged the stake into his chest.It wasn''t as precise a blow as I would have liked, not with the skilled way he was dodging. I struggled to get the stake in deep enough to his heart, unsure if I could do it from this angle. Then, his struggles stopped. His eyes stared at me, stunned, and his lips parted, almost into a smile, albeit a grisly and pained one."That''s what I was supposed to say. . ." he gasped out.Those were his last words.'), | |

Peeta, wake up," I say in a soft, singsong voice.His eyelids flutter open and then he jumps like we''ve stabbed him. "Aa!"Finnick and I fall back in the sand, laughing our heads off.

(1570, 'I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you. Unjust I may have been, weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone, I think and plan. Have you not seen this? Can you fail to have understood my wishes? I had not waited even these ten days, could I have read your feelings, as I think you must have penetrated mine. I can hardly write. I am every instant hearing something which overpowers me. You sink your voice, but I can distinguish the tones of that voice when they would be lost on others. Too good, too excellent creature! You do us justice, indeed. You do believe that there is true attachment and constancy among men. Believe it to be most fervent, most undeviating, in F.
