Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.

When I was young, I observed that nine out of ten things I did were failures. So I did ten times more work. ~George Bernard Shaw

Hmm I’m quoting Charles Manson today, we can learn alot from any and everyone if we open our minds to their words without judging them for their actions.
I can’t dislike you, but I will say this to you: you haven’t got long before you are all going to kill yourselves, because you are all crazy. And you can project it back at me, but I am only what lives inside each and every one of you.
I can’t judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.
I never thought I was normal, never tried to be normal.
Just because you’re convicted in a court room doesn’t mean you’re guilty of something.
Living is what scares me. Dying is easy.
My father is the jailhouse. My father is your system… I am only what you made me. I am only a reflection of you.
The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.
You are going to use this courtroom to kill me? I am going to fight for my life one way or another. You should let me do it with words.
You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody’s crazy.

When you make choices that are uninfluenced by anything other than your own self. When what you wear, what you eat, where you live, what you read, what you listen to is all the truth of who you say you are. People with real style are making choices closest to their own chest. - Michaela Angela Davis

Thieves respect property; they merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it. - G. K. Chesterton

Focused. I’m a hustler. And my hustle is trying to figure out the best ways to do what I like without having to do much else.
- Mos Def
Train up a child in the way that he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. - King Solomon

A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love. - Friedrich Nietzche

“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again. Because there is no effort without error and shortcomings, he who knows the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who know neither victory nor defeat”. - Theodore Roosevelt
