Things aren't magically better if that's what you're hoping for. It's not that simple.

In the end, you'll know which people really love you. They're the ones who see you for who you are and, no matter what, always find a way to be at your side.

Think of life as a giant, fat cat you're in charge of. Sometimes you can control it, but other times, it's going to do what it wants and you have to roll with it. And sometimes you can do everything - everything you're s'posed to do- and it'll still shred all the things you hold dear... The only thing you can really do with life is rub its belly and prepare for the worst.

Success only hurts the first time.

Death likes it when you play hard to get.

Being prepared for loss is never the same as being ready for it.

The only thing that lasts longer than a friend's love is the stupidity that keeps us from knowing any better.
