To be nobody-but-yourself - in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.
Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.
It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade
Out of the night that covers me, Black is the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true.
It's the good girls who keep diaries; the bad girls never have the time.
Love bears it out even to the edge of doom.

Going for character: why not now, and where you stand?
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
Live in each season as it passes: breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit.
There is a tide in the affairs of men
Look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again.
Do not let your fire go out.
Remember tonight...for it's the beginning of forever. - Dante Alighieri
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
