"Suddenly the world is filled with a beauty
 

that's almost painful to behold.

Or maybe it's always been like this.
 

And you're just noticing it for the first time."

-I Wrote This For You

"Never use emotion as a weapon,
 
it strikes deeper than you can imagine."

"There are all kinds of love in the world, 

but never the same love twice"

-F. Scott Fitzgerald

"Most people don’t know what they want or feel. 

And for everyone, myself included, it’s very difficult 

to say what you mean when what you mean is painful. 

The most difficult thing in the world is to reveal yourself, 

to express what you have to… As an artist, I feel that we must 

try many things - but above all, we must dare to fail. You must 

have the courage to be bad - to be willing to risk everything to 

really express it all."

 -J. CASSAVETES

"For you,

 a thousand times over"

-The Kite Runner

"But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats.

no one can avoid them. but it's better to lose some

of the battles in the struggles for your dreams

than to be defeated without ever knowing what 

you're fighting for."

-Paulo Coelho 

“Love can come when you’re already who you are, when 

you’re 

filled with you. Not when you look to someone else to fill 

the empty space.” ~Deb Caletti

"There is nothing to writing.

 All you do 

is sit down at a typewriter and bleed." 

-Ernest Hemingway 

insight, in black and white

"When you have done the things you've done.

When I tell you I'll meet you at the door. And you tell me you're sorry. That I have no reason left to worry.

When you hit the ground in a most peculiar way. And I tell you to wait. And you tell me I'll be sorry. That you have no reason left to worry. 

When I am more than you can take, just give me back."

-I Wrote This For You

"That's what it feels like when you fall from great

heights. That's what it feels like when your heart grows 

back. That's what it feels like when you don't want to 

feel. But this, this is just me. "-I Wrote This For You
