The number of years you wept do not matter. The number of tears you shed do not matter, either. God can still turn your situation around. He is a great God all the time.

Whenever we find life to be the most difficult we should remember that it always gets easier. Change is the sacred law of life and the cycles of good and bad follow each other continously. You have to keep your head up and wait for the storm to pass.

Your life may have taken a detour, but God is still on the throne. He has brought you this far, and sooner or later, your

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Life is a cycle, always in motion, if good times have moved on, so will times of trouble.

Tides don’t last forever and when they go, they leave behind beautiful seashells.

Never change for the mainstream—stay in your lane, and if you’re talented and resilient enough the mainstream will come to you.

No point in staying somewhere you feel unhappy and unfulfilled. Sure, it’s easier said than done to pack up and leave when you don’t know where you’re going, but ultimately, that sense of adventure will lead to personal growth, which is never wrong.

Don’t worry about being worried. You’re heading out on an adventure and you can always change your mind along the way and try something else.

Turn your weekend into adventure.

Decay (or anicca) is inherent in all component things. Work out your own salvation with diligence.

When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.

I can hear change humming
In its loudest, proudest song.
I don’t fear change coming,
And so I sing along.

You don’t just change your whole life in one big step. It’s the small things you do every day that pull over to the big things, like taking yourself out for coffee and eating a really good dessert when you’re depressed could be the start to living a fulfilled life.

As long as you’re still alive, you always have the chance to start again.

Don’t be afraid of change. You may end up losing something good, but you’ll probably end up gaining something so much better.

If there’s something that you wish to change about your life, you have to do it. There’s no joy in living a life of regrets. Every moment is an opportunity to start over.

THE BEGINNING OF A NEW MONTH
A perfect time for SHIFTING things around,
Always remembering to keep your feet on the ground.

Every morning is a new opportunity to change your life for the better, so wake up and make it happen!

There is always an opportunity to start again and again, if the old ways are not working last year, look for better ways of doing it in the new year and start again afresh.

I’d like to be an example of no matter how dark and thick and hopeless it feels, for years maybe, things can and will change.

Even if we don’t always know what is going on in our lives or things are changing, God knows and He has a plan to make things great for us.

Breathe in the new. Let go of the old. Make way for the new month, new opportunity, and a new beginning.

Sometimes, we need something drastic like ending a relationship or changing careers to shake us out of our funk and inspire us to do better.

One of the most peaceful mindsets ever begins the moment you finally find the courage to let go of what you can’t change. It is

Hatori Sohma: Don’t you mean inevitable?
Ayame, spitting out a concerning amount of coins: no.

Loneliness, insomnia, and change: the fear of these is even worse than the reality.

Saying ‘goodbye’ can be a very lonely thing.

It’s lonely to say goodbye. Very lonely. Partings are the beginnings of new meetings. Beginnings happen because there

As mothers raising sons, we have the power to change the trajectory of not only our own sons’ lives, but also of the culture at large.

I have trouble with letting go. That’s my problem. Anybody that has extreme highs and extreme lows is bipolar to any psychologist and that’s not necessarily the truth.

At the end of the day, your life is just a story. If you don’t like the direction it’s going, change it. Rewrite it. When you rewrite a sentence, you erase it and start over until you get it right. Yes, it’s a little more complicated with a life, but the principle is the same. And remember, don’t let anyone ever tell you that your revisions are not the truth.

Sometimes we can only find our true direction when we let the wind of change carry us.

Although you literally took your first step when you were several months old, each time you want to make a change in your life you must take a first step that puts you in that new direction.

Kyo Sohma: Anyway, when you’re the Cat, this sort of stuff isn’t easy to answer. People ask what my plans for the future are and

Ms. Honda, I can tie my tie faster than I used to and it looks better. And fewer of my vegetables have been dying lately.

And things did change. For the first time, someone showed me the outside world…helped me find my way… and stayed by my side.

After you’ve done a thing the same way for two years, look it over carefully. After five years, look at it with suspicion. And after ten years, throw it away and start all over.

You would be very surprise with how much positive changes that you could make in your life, if could make it your top priority to mind your own business.

Okay, listen. So, ladies, there’s been a little change of plans. Something came up. You know that casino I was telling you all about. I’ve got some vouchers to the buffet.

All of us want to make changes in our lives, and while we should not have to wait until the beginning of a new year to make some of them, it’s actually a very good time to make the change. It’s truly a new beginning and it provides a launching point to boost the difference you are going to make.

Crap. I’m scared. I want to run away. I want to run away so badly…but still, I want to change, is what I thought. I’ve never felt this way before. I can’t stand the way I am. I want to change.

We as African Americans knew that if we wanted to see change, we had to step up to the plate and make that change ourselves. Not everyone comes to that realization in their lives, but thank God Linda Brown’s father felt that way.

If you are truly wanting to change your life, it is important to be around people with a similar mindset.

One of the best times for figuring out who you are & what you really want out of life? Right after a break-up.

Let this coming year be better than all the others. Vow to do some of the things you’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t find the time.

The secret to change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.

Deploring change is the unchangeable habit of all Englishmen. If you find any important figures who really like change, such as Bernard Shaw, Keir Hardie, Lloyd George, Selfridge or Disraeli, you will find that they are not really English at all, but Irish, Scotch, Welsh, American or Jewish. Englishmen make changes, sometimes great changes. But, secretly or openly, they always deplore them.

When you’re feeling down, did you know that you can change it in an instant? Put on a beautiful piece of music or start singing – that’ll change your emotion – or think of something beautiful, think of a baby, maybe one you love, really keep that thought in your mind, block out everything but that thought. I guarantee you’ll start to feel good.

It’s never too late to go for a dream or make a change in your life. You can reinvent yourself, build a new career and maintain a positive outlook on life, at any age – even when your world is collapsing around you.

In order to truly make lasting positive change — to keep Dr. King’s dream moving forward — we need to think big and act big.

Nothing commends a radical change to an Englishman more than the belief that it is really conservative.

Wow, a change, you know. That’s what kills a man: lack of change.

she is no longer
the beautiful woman
she was. she sends
photos of herself

if she thinks I

saved her?

What’s the bill, Arbuckle ??

Well, it comes to $17.94.

I gave him a twenty. He started digging for change.

You know better than that. Buy yourself a new home.

Every night greets the dawn. There is no night that goes on forever.

Things will get better, but things will never be the same.

You can always begin change, but best do it right now.

What you don’t know, what you don’t understand… You can learn those things starting now. So let’s change, okay? Akito. This is what I wanted to talk to you about before. If you continue to stay in this environment, the “bond” and the “Sohma family” will consume you. You’ll feel empty inside forever. You’ll never be satisfied. You’ve realized it too, haven’t you?

I was just… a little desperate. I was fed up with repeating the same mistakes day after day.

You came into my life and then became my life.

I happen to adore you.

The day I met you, my life changed. The way you make me feel is hard to explain. You make me smile in a special kind of way, you make me fall deeper in love everyday.

Nothing’s changed since then. But him…he’s changed, little by little. […] It looked to me like the more he was treated like a “Prince”, the more the loneliness ate away at him. But now it seems he smiles because he’s actually enjoying himself. He’s changing. I’m positive.

So let me get this straight. You were living in a tent in the woods, but now you’re living with Prince Charming and anger management boy? SERIOUSLY?!

Time marches on. It’s already begun that hike. People…and feelings move on, too.

Talking to you, laughing with you, being with you, changes my whole mood.

One smile can’t change the world, but your smile changes mine.

With you, I saw the world in shades of color, and only you have made me fall in love.

I love you because you make me want to be a better man. You make me want to be a better lover, a better son, a better brother, a better friend. I love you because you make me want to be a better person. And I can’t think of anyone I’d rather be.

Meeting you was worth all my expectations; you have altered my world, and undoubtedly, you have become my life.

Change is made of choices, & choices are made of character.

I’ve decided…I can’t remain at a standstill anymore.

If maybe… I have managed to change just a bit… It’s because I found people who accept me. They see what I’m doing, and when it’s good, they tell me so. They don’t just tell me this is bad, or that’s no good. Not all of it is negative. That makes me happy. And because I’m happy… I begin to feel like I can keep trying.

It’s time for a fresh start, new goals, and maybe even a little reflection. What are you up to in October?

New month, new beginnings. Always keep an open heart and an open mind.

Every time you tear a leaf off a calendar, you present a new place for new ideas and progress.

All great changes are preceded by chaos.

Changing just a small part of the old paradigm can make an enormous difference in the results you enjoy in every area of your life.

What does your attitude proclaim to the world about you today? It is never to late to change your story, start by changing your thoughts and pay attention to your attitude.

Do you think I’ll ever need you love more than you need me? Show me your true colors girl, I just want to see cause I done had too many come around and change on me.

If you already understand your purpose, are you prepared to change your plans to match God’s will? If you aren’t, you can easily become bitter because things that used to work for you may no longer work. Be willing to transition at every stage and age of life. If your heart is open and you have an open mind, the blessings will flow.

God can change your story so that throughout history, His Glory may be revealed.

Look at the mountains. Look and the oceans! No one else can change the oceans into mountains or mountains into oceans, because the work of God’s hands is the greatest.

I wanted to start over completely, to begin again as new people with nothing of the past left over. I wanted to run away from who we had been seen to be, who we had been… It’s the first thing I think of when trouble comes – the geographic solution. Change your name, leave town, disappear, make yourself over. What hides behind that impulse is the conviction that the life you have lived, the person you are, is valueless, better off abandoned, that running away is easier than trying to change things, that change itself is not possible.

I think it is very important for people to run away…from home, from the mainstream, from their family, from the culture, from the society that produced them…because the moment I have to learn something new, like new habits, new languages, I myself have something like a rebirth. I reduce myself to the lowest denominator and this is very healthy for an artist. To start all over again.

I will start anew
I will make amends
and I will make quite certain
that the story ends
on a note of hope
on a strong amen
and I’ll thank the world
and remember when
I was able to begin again!

Being sick allows you to check out of life. Getting well again means you have to check back in. It is absolutely crucial that you feel ready to check back into life because you feel as though something has changed from the time before you were sick. Whatever it was that made you feel insecure, less than, or pressured to live in a way that was uncomfortable to you has to change before you want to go back there and start over.

The current paradigm is so thoroughly established that the only way to change is to start over again.

God is your safety and security. He keeps you safe and never leaves you. His love for you will never change, even when things around you seem to change.

He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.

What we have to remember is that we can still do anything. We can change our minds. We can start over. The notion that it’s too late to do anything is comical. It’s hilarious. We’re so young. We can’t, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it’s all we have.

It isn’t always a change of scenery needed to make life better. Sometimes it simply requires opening your eyes.

To change ones life: Start immediately. Do it flamboyantly.

Humble new beginnings do exist, but to begin, you must be humble. Nothing ever stays the same.

It’s amazing, really, how in one instant a wall can be torn down, or climbed over. Misconceptions can be shattered, illusions dashed, dreams irrevocably ruined. Given the right frame of mind, within a heartbeat, people can begin the business of starting over.

God told me I was going to make an impact on the world.

I was raised to believe that God has a plan for everyone and that seemingly random twists of fate are all a part of His plan.

Rambo: Why’d you come back?
Sarah: Waiting for you.
Rambo: I told you before, I can’t help you.
Sarah: Well, we need to go and help these people. We’re here to make a difference. We believe all lives are special.
Rambo: Some lives… some not.
Sarah: Really? If everyone thought like you, nothing would ever change.
Rambo: Nothing does change.
Sarah: Of course it does! Nothing stays the same!
Rambo: Live your life, ’cause you’ve got a good one.
Sarah: It’s what I’m trying to do!
Rambo: No, what you’re trying to do is change what is.
Sarah: And what is?
Rambo: Go home.

I, on the other hand……I was born in the Sohma Compound and have lived here all my life. Life outside these walls…is a complete mystery to me……but I…now that I’ve…reached this age, it’s too late. I’ve spent…forty years…fifty years…sixty years…building my life here. It’s too late for me to change it now. I can’t change it. I…I’m…just…too old…for this…It’s impossible…for me to change…everything…

You’ve changed…Akito-san. And I must say…I liked you better before.

The greatest work God ever performs was not the creation of the universe out of nothing, but is the new creation of saints out of sinners.

But once He has made His decision, who can change His mind? Whatever He wants to do, He does.

Prayer is crucial in evangelism: Only God can change the heart of someone who is in rebellion against Him. No matter how logical our arguments or how fervent our appeals, our words will accomplish nothing unless God’s Spirit prepares the way.

I used to give a fuck, until I lost my emotions.

God is kind, but he is not soft. He takes us firmly by the hand and leads us into a radical life change.

The circumstances we ask God to CHANGE are often the circumstances God is using to CHANGE US.

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each new day to have a new and different sun….

Don’t settle down and sit in one place. Move around, be nomadic, make each day a new horizon.

It’s never too late to start over. If you weren’t happy with yesterday, try something different today. Don’t stay stuck. Do better.

As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.

My mom always told me, “You can’t change the past.” She was wrong. I just re-did last week’s logbook.

A driver must be willing to be flexible. They have to be able to quickly adapt to changes in travel, load pick-up and delivery schedule.

A trucker is a king on a bucket seat vinyl throne, changing direction with the turn of a wheel, changing the weather with the touch of a button, changing the music with the flip of a dial.

People underestimate their capacity for change. There is never a right time to do a difficult thing.

You two were oddballs, even back then. I could hear your inner voices once in a while, and they weren’t all sweetness and light. You both had small, secret voices tucked away, voices that were softly crying. And yet, your warm mood never wavered.

It’s painful and it’s messy. But sometimes you just have to make the break and start again.

The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.

Like how many people you’re…like how many times your life is gonna totally change and then, like, start all over again? And you’ll feel like what happened before wasn’t real and what’s happening now is actually…

If You’re Disappointed Or Lost Something, Don’t Stay In That Situation For Long…. Be Like Hydra Which Has Never Die Attitude…. When It Loses One Part of It’s Body, It Reproduces Again…. So, Transform Your Pain To A New Birth….

You are never too old to start over. Every day is a chance to make changes to create the life we want.

Change is on its way. Keep your head up for God has a plan for you.

When fear enters your mind, flip the switch and choose faith.

A quiet woman is at peace and about to change everything.

Change your perception of temporary defeat. Look at it as a set up for your big win.

To change your habits, you must change your thinking.

I never met a wise man that didn’t understand change.

Money coming, money gotta flip it. I ain’t waiting on nobody, I’mma go get it.

You can only attract to you, that which vibrates in harmony with you! If you want to attract better things into your life, change the vibration you are putting out.

To change your life ― you MUST change your paradigm. The change is not easy, but it’s worth it, and the results are lasting.

If you’re dissatisfied with something in your life, change your perception and use your imagination to upgrade your view and reshape your experience. You can achieve ANYTHING.

Change your thoughts, and you will change your results.

What’s going on outside is a reflection of what’s going on inside. In order to change your results, you MUST change your mental programming.

Our behaviors and our results are programmed by our thoughts. It may be challenging at first, but remember, you CHOOSE the way you see things.

As you grow in awareness, your change in mindset may separate you from those around you.

Your plans are fine, as long as you realize God has the right to change them.

As changes take place in my life, I continue to watch them truly work out for my good-if I can just wait on God to see me through. What makes all the difference is trust-the understanding that God has a much bigger plan than mine even if I don’t understand it. I’m grateful, yet sorry, that I have had to learn so many lessons by hindsight.

The moment we change our thinking and start connecting with God, we start connecting with His plans, which always exceed our small plans.

It causes some sleepless nights. Some change is going to have to happen.

You can change your health, you can change your relationships, you can change your income, you can change anything.

And everytime the leaves start changing
It’s the loneliest time of year!

I cannot say whether things will get better if we change, what I can say is that they must change if they are to get better.

Sometimes the bad things that happen in our lives put us directly on the path to the most wonderful things that will ever happen to us.

People will flip on you at the drop of a dime. Just be prepared so it doesn’t surprise you.

Embrace the new changes and new environment – This is where you can restart your life with no one recognizing you or knowing your history. This is your chance at a fresh start.

I believe that life is a journey and for me to tell you my plans; things never go according to plan.

Our elders said back then that if Black folks really wanted to see Change, they had to step up to the plate and do it themselves. Somebody has to be First. Will that be you?

As African-Americans, people of that generation felt pretty much if they were going to see changes in the world, they had to make sacrifices and step up to the plate. I’m very proud that my parents happened to be people who did. They were not privileged to have a formal education.

I want to be Tohru’s best friend. I want to be a best friend that Tohru can be proud of! (internally) That’s what made me want to change. That thought still spurs me on. When I look back now, it’s a little embarrassing. Getting carried on her back, blubbering like a little kid, but it wasn’t for nothing. […] It really is great when you’re not alone. I made it to second year of middle school, met Hanajima, and life became even more fun. I think Kyoko-san was enjoying it as much as we were. But then…her death…that’s a lie, isn’t it? The darkened windows of that apartment – that’s a lie too, right? I loved her. She owed this brat nothing, and yet came to my rescue. She was a softie, but straightforward, and warmer than anyone I’ve ever known. I loved her.

Wise men change and fools they stay the same.

I’m not sure why I’ve decided to do this. I’m not any stronger than I was, and nothing else has changed. But all the same, this time I’m not going to run away. It’s okay to feel weak sometimes. It’s okay to be afraid. The important thing is that we face our fears. That’s…that’s what makes us strong.

It’s not like I suddenly became stronger, nor did anything change. My body still trembles, but I’ll keep facing my fears. What’s important is… the desire to improve… which stems from weakness.

I can’t change it, That was God’s plan for my life and I’m going to go with it.

The universe is not a magic as it is today, it is the continuous creation of God.

At any point God can change his plans for your life when he decides your life purpose needs to be protected.

Sometimes things don’t happen in your life as planned and sometimes things happen in your life unplanned, both happen as God’s plan.

It may seem like we have the ultimate plan for our lives, but it’s not in the same galaxy of what God’s plans are for His people.

It’s funny how God will change your plans for you when he’s ready.

I’ve never guided my life. I’ve just been whipped along by the waves I’m sitting in. I don’t make plans at all. Plans are what make God laugh. You can make plans, you can make so many plans, but they never go right, do they?

Change makes you find your calling, your legacy, and God’s divine plan for your life. Don’t run from it.

I never make plans, because whenever I do I find out God has other plans.

Unfortunately, negativity becomes habitual for many of us. However, it’s never too late to turn our lives around, to laugh instead of complain.

When someone you love dies, you are given the gift of “second chances”. Their eulogy is a reminder that the living can turn their lives around at any point. You’re not bound by the past; that is who you used to be. You’re reminded that your feelings are not who you are, but how you felt at that moment. Your bad choices defined you yesterday, but they are not who you are today. Your future doesn’t have to travel the same path with the same people. You can start over. You don’t have to apologize to people that won’t listen. You don’t have to justify your feelings or actions, during a difficult time in your life. You don’t have to put up with people that are insecure and want you to fail. All you have to do is walk forward with a positive outlook, and trust that God has a plan that is greater than the sorrow you left behind. The people of quality that were meant to be in your life won’t need you to explain the beauty of your heart. They already understand what being human is – a roller coaster ride of emotions during rainstorms and sunshine, sprinkled with moments when you can almost reach the stars.

When the winds of change blow, some people build walls and others build windmills.

Murdock: Rambo, you can feel totally safe because we have the most advanced weapons in the world available to us.
Rambo: I’ve always believed that the mind is the best weapon.
Murdock: Times change.
Rambo: For some people.

New beginnings bring new possibilities. A chance to this time get it right.

With every roadblock, a detour is built. With every ending, a new beginning is defined. Embracing a challenge makes life interesting, but overcoming it makes life meaningful.

The life you have led doesn’t need to be the only life you have.

Sometimes the best thing we can ask for is change, and a fresh start forces us to confront change head-on.

Life is about change, sometimes it’s painful, sometimes it’s beautiful, but most of the time it’s both.

Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change.

Everything begins at the beginning, and quite often the beginning begins when you shift your mind in a new direction.

We want a fresh start only because we didn’t sufficiently care for the last fresh start.

We think that we are invincible because we are. We cannot be born, and we cannot die. Like all energy, we can only change shapes and sizes and manifestations. They forget that when they get old. They get scared of losing and failing. But that part of us greater than the sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, and so it cannot fail.

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

And I am just one of many who repurposed their lives after they heard about the plan God had for them and as they experienced how God moved in another person’s life and purpose.

Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end.

Each time that I have felt like I might finally be figuring some things out, life has decided to change the rules and I’ve had to start all over again.

Hamid: What’s that?
Rambo: It’s blue light.
Hamid: What does it do?
Rambo: It turns blue.

In the January that I turned thirty-five, sleep became a foreign and hostile country. I had never been more than what one might call a refugee in the country of sleep.

Neal: I’ll get that. I’ve paid for everything else, why break precedent?
Del: You’re making me feel like a freeloader!
Neal: Get me on the train, we’re square.
Del: You got it. That’s the easy part.

Knowing when and how to change course is important to success. Self-doubt is a lighthouse that will keep you from running aground. Don’t become shipwrecked on the rocks of time. Be willing to rethink your decisions and change course.

The anchor in our world today is freedom, holding us steady in times of change, a symbol of hope to all the world.

They went through and out into the yard Sophie had known all her life. It was only half the size now, because Howl’s yard from the moving castle took up one side of it. Sophie looked up beyond the brick walls of Howl’s yard to her own old house. It looked rather odd because of the new window in it that belonged to Howl’s bedroom, and it made Sophie feel odder still when she realized that Howl’s window did not look out onto the things she saw now. She could see the window of her own old bedroom, up above the shop. That made her feel odd too, because there did not seem to be any way to get up into it now.

The room turned dim. Huge, cloudy, human-looking shapes bellied up in all four corners and advanced on Sophie and Michael, howling as they came. The howls began as moaning horror, and went up to despairing brays, and then up again to screams of pain and terror. Sophie pressed her hands to her ears, but the screams pressed through her hands, louder and louder still, more horrible every second. Calcifer shrank hurriedly down in the grate and flickered his way under his lowest log. Michael grabbed Sophie by her elbow and dragged her to the door.

“I’ve never seen why people put such value on things being natural,” Howl said, and Sophie knew then that he was scarcely changed at all.

“Look at this!” he shouted “Look at it! what has that one-woman force of chaos done to these spells?”
Sophie and Michael whirled round and looked at Howl. His hair was wet, but, apart from that, neither of them could see that it looked any different.
“If you mean me-” Sophie began.
“I do mean you! Look!” Howl shrieked. He sat down with a thump on the three-legged stool and jabbed at his wet head with his fingers. “Look. Survey. Inspect. My hair is ruined! I look like a pan of bacon and eggs!”
Michael and Sophie bent nervously over Howl’s head. It seemed the usual flaxen color right down to the roots. The only difference might have been a slight, very slight, trace of red. Sophie found that agreeable. It reminded her a little of the color her own hair should have been.
“I think it’s nice,” she said.
“Nice!” screamed Howl. “You would! You did it on purpose. You couldn’t rest until you made me miserable too. Look at it! It’s ginger! I shall have to hide until it’s grown out!” He spread his arms out passionately. “Dispair!” he yelled. “Anguish! Horror!”

More about Howl? Sophie thought desperately. I have to blacken his name! Her mind was such a blank that for a second it actually seemed to her that Howl had no faults at all. How stupid! ‘Well, he’s fickle, careless, selfish, and hysterical,’ she said. ‘Half the time I think he doesn’t care what happens to anyone as long as he’s alright–but then I find out how awfully kind he’s been to someone. Then I think he’s kind just when it suits him–only then I find out he undercharges poor people. I don’t know, Your Majesty. He’s a mess.’

Gratitude changes everything. Be thankful today.

Be thankful for progress, and not perfection.

God is the one that’s ultimately in control of everything. You can’t try to change things when they’re not meant to be changed.

The struggle ends when the gratitude begins.

When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.

Whatever your current situation, take a moment to give thanks for not being back in the place you used to be.

Be thankful for today because, in the blink of an eye, your whole existence might change.

Some people consider changing barber worse than cheating.

Some guys will cheat on their girlfriends and sleep like a baby at night but feel guilty when they go to another barber.

Sherry… a silly, sickly compound, the use of which will transform a nation, however bold and warlike by nature, into a race of sketchers, scribblers, and punsters, in fact into what Englishmen are at the present day.

Everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually.

Let’s face it, guys, after midnight, this whole f**king place turns into a pumpkin, and you guys all turn back into mice. This is a classic Cinderella tale here. You know, Peter Pan will no longer be a man, he’ll turn into a real boy. George Washington will never be able to cut down the beanstalk. You guys will eventually just go back to bein’ the shittiest Mexican baseball team in Mexico.

One thing is certain in life. Just when things are going well, soon afterward they are certain to go wrong. It’s just the way things are meant to be.

Closure, for me, would mean accepting my circumstances rather than trying to alter them to serve me best.

Hear me when I say I believe nothings gonna change destiny. Whatevers meant to be will work out perfectly.

Is not man born with a love of change—an Englishman to be discontented—an Anglo-Indian to grumble?

When a tiger changes his nature, Englishmen will change theirs.

I am ok now, feeling is what I get when I get into my Jeep.

There is no other feeling that compares to that moment you become a Jeep owner. It is then you realize that things will never be the same.

No matter how the day started, if you smile when you see your Jeep Compass you get it.

One Jeep can change your life.

And why are you wearing FUBU? That’s for them, by them. You’re assimilating weird. You look like a goddamn, strange sort of Mexican Grimace…

Did this tale end the way I thought it would? Probably not. But as long as I win, who gives a shit.

It’s not a good feeling to hide a huge part of your life. If you were meant to be somebody else, you’d be somebody else, so don’t change who you are.
