Remember your personal demons should be afraid of you, because you are their home, their food, and as you heal, their executioner.
There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.
Never criticize, unless you can do a better job.
If you think love makes you happy, you've either never been in love, or never been in love long enough to have to start compromising.
My father had taught me to be nice first, because you can always be mean later, but once you've been mean to someone, they won't believe the nice anymore. So be nice, be nice, until it's time to stop being nice, then destroy them.
There comes a point when you either embrace who and what you are, or condemn yourself to be miserable all your days. Other people will try to make you miserable; don't help them by doing the job yourself.
Never trust people who smile constantly. They're either selling something or not very bright.
Feelings are never stupid, they just make us feel stupid sometimes.
Giving up something that no longer serves a purpose, or protects you, or helps you, isn’t giving up at all, it’s growing up.
Is it better to outmonster the monsters or to be quietly devoured?
Love is too precious to be ashamed of.
Worry about the things you can control; the rest will either work themselves out, or they'll kill you. Either way, no more worries.
The only true happiness lies in knowing who you are ... and making peace with it.
I will love you always. When this red hair is white, I will still love you. When the smooth softness of youth is replaced by the delicate softness of age, I will still want to touch your skin. When your face is full of the lines of every smile you have ever smiled, of every surprise I have seen flash through your eyes, when every tear you have ever cried has left its mark upon your face,I will treasure you all the more, because I was there to see it all. I will share your life with you, Meredith, and I will love you until the last breath leaves your body or mine.
You take insult where none is intended, but if you will find insult where none is meant, then perhaps I should try harder to insult on purpose.
Some issues stay fresh every time you open them up. It's like evil magical Tupperware -- it stays fresh forever.
Hope will lie to you, but lust is what it is; it never lies.
We are not made up only of our light and happiness but also of darkness and sorrow. To deny the darkness of yourself is to deny half of who you are, and when you love, truly love, you need to love the whole person not just the part that smiles and waves, but the part that thinks murderous thoughts and knows that pain is both pleasure and temptation, but still thinks puppies are really cute.
I loved him, but love isn't enough. All the fairy tales, the romance novels, the soap operas; they're all lies. Love does not conquer all.
Nill illigitamus carborundum
Love sucks. Sometimes it feels good. Sometimes it's just another way to bleed.
To gain your heart's desire you have to lose some part of your old life, your old self. To do that you have to have courage; without it, you can't make the leap. And if you don't make the leap you have only three choices: You can hate yourself for not taking the chance, you can hate the person from whom you've sacrificed your happiness, or you can hate the one who offered you happiness, and blame them for your lack of courage, convince yourself it wasn't real.
There are a thousand ways to hurt someone you love that have nothing to do with physical violence.
Patience is a virtue, but there comes a moment when you must stop being patient and take the day by the throat and shake it. If it fights back; fine. I'd rather end up bloody at the end of the day, then unhurt with no progress made, no knowledge gained. I'd rather have a no, then nothing. I'd forgotten that about myself.
Being a successful couple was learning what you were willing to compromise on, and what you weren't; learning when to stand your ground, and when to give it up; what was truly important enough to fight over, and what was just you being pissy. You learned each other's hot buttons, the places that hurt, or angered, when you pressed them. Love makes you learn where all the pitfalls are, and how to avoid them, or how to set them off.
