Words worth keeping

Reality continues to ruin my life.

Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn't stop for anybody.

Who are you to judge the life I live?I know I'm not perfect-and I don't live to be-but before you start pointing fingers...make sure you hands are clean!

The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.

When someone loves you, the way they talk about you is different. You feel safe and comfortable.

Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears."After all this time?""Always," said Snape.

He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much;Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children;Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;Who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it;Who has left the world better than he found it,Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul;Who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had;Whose life was an inspiration;Whose memory a benediction.

I'm the one that's got to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.

I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.

But better to get hurt by the truth than comforted with a lie.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

Just when you think it can't get any worse, it can. And just when you think it can't get any better, it can.

The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person.
