Something like that happened to me, you know. I … I’m not exactly sure what it was. Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another

Comedy is subjective, Murray. Isn’t that what they say? All of you, the system that knows so much, you decide what’s right or wrong. The

And I thought my jokes were bad.

You think it all breaks down into symbolism and structures and hints and clues. No, Batman, that’s just Wikipedia.

You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with. Nothing to do with all your strength.

If you don’t like the movie, I’ve got slides.

It’d be funny if it weren’t so pathetic.

Do you know how many times we’ve come close to world war three over a flock of geese on a computer screen? Do you know

I used to think my life was a tragedy, but now I realize it’s a comedy.

Happiness is a state of mind. It’s just according to the way you look at things.

Well, now I am insulted.

Would we crave peace
If we knew what it was.

Instead of letting your hardships and failures discourage or exhaust you, let them inspire you.

Maybe not today, or tomorrow, or even in a year, but eventually things will turn up, you will get better and be able to look

No matter what you’re going through, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, and it may seem hard to get to, but you

You not supposed to feel down over whatever happen to you. I mean, you’re supposed to use whatever happen to you as some type of upper, not a downer.

She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad. And that’s important — you know.

Perhaps living through these petty days will get us ready for the dangerous ones.

It’s true that this world isn’t enveloped in light. But…there’s more to it than that. It isn’t all darkness. There’s more to it than that.

I treat winning and losing exactly the same. I see them both as necessary steps to get us where we are going. Big failures big

There’s always more to life than we expect, even in our darkest hours.

Don’t get lost in your pain, know that one day your pain will become your cure.

Clearly understand, there isn’t any situation that isn’t made worse by worry. Worry never solves anything. Worry never prevents anything. Worry never heals anything. Worry

The only power our problems can have over us is the power we give to them.

Getting lost means finding an adventure.

It’s this weird binary where I’m getting media images and narratives thrown at me all the time through something I hold in my hand, and that’s never happened to other generations. But also with this little object in my hand, I have the ability to document police brutality, or post about the Syrian conflict on Twitter.

That’s kind of the challenging thing about writing an inaugural poem. You’re speaking to everyone, but you don’t also want to speak for everyone.

I measure every Grief I meet
With narrow, probing, eyes –
I wonder if It weighs like Mine –
Or has an Easier size.

They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse.

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant.

When you think things are bad,
when you feel sour and blue,
when you start to get mad…
you should do what I do!
Just tell yourself, Duckie, you’re

My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated

The Law Polarity decrease that everything has an opposite it’s the flip side of the coin, you’re right my left, the front the back, consider

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t.

Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.

When you are grateful – when you can see what you have – you unlock blessings to flow in your life.

It’s Thankful Thursday! Count your blessings so you will lose count of your problems.

Trump as the president doesn’t make sense to me.

We often say:
We are beside ourselves with grief.
We can’t even imagine.
This means anguish can call us to envision
More than what we believed was carriable
Or even survivable.
That is to say, there does exist
A good grief.

As far away as it is,
The late sun looks
Peelable in our palm.
That is to say, distance
Renders all massiveness
Carriable.

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.

Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of humor, which is awfully important in this day and age. Humor has a tremendous place in this sordid world. It’s more than just a matter of laughing. If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.

I know it may seem small and insignificant, but it’s not about what it is, it’s about what it can become. That’s not a seed, any more than you’re just a boy.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. To the world, you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

Every day of your life is a miracle, every moment is a miracle. You can take life for granted. You can focus on all your shortcomings, all your pains and trials, but even then, it is a miracle that these things even exist.

In living this way, we discover new opportunities for comfort and enjoyment. Where the younger person may have tossed and turned throughout a sleepless night, the older man or woman can possibly feel the pleasure that comes from lying on a good mattress, resting one’s weary bones and overcharged intellect, whether or not one sleeps throughout the hours of darkness.

Good morning, my angel. May blessed happenings occur everywhere you go.

Today is a new day full of possibilities. Embrace it with a smile and make the most of it! Good morning.

Sometimes the first step toward forgiveness is realizing the other person was born an idiot.

Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn’t that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.

I speak to people who have coached me down the years who tell me to look at how far I’ve come and to just keep

We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.

Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.

“Ben,” my mother said, “you shouldn’t smoke, it will kill you.”
“I’ve had a good life.”

There are no good wars or bad wars. The only thing bad about a war is to lose it. All wars have been fought for a so-called good Cause on both sides. But only the victor’s Cause becomes history’s Noble Cause. It’s not a matter of who is right or who is wrong, it’s a matter of who has the best generals and the better army!

Would Celine do that? Who would want to live to be 102? Nobody but a fool. Why would Celine wish to linger? The whole thing was crazy. Lady Death was crazy. I was crazy. The pilots of airliners were crazy. Never look at the pilot. Just get on board and order drinks.

I’m not. Really. I’m not trying to be a hero, but seriously, Sirius Black can’t be worse than Voldemort, can he?

Probably that you’re going to be eaten by a giant marshmallow or something.

Dudley, for the first time in your life, you’re talking sense.

Hermione, you’re good on feelings and stuff, but you just don’t understand about Quidditch.

Listen. If you don’t take it, I’m throwing it down the drain. I don’t want it and I don’t need it. But I could do with a few laughs. We could all do with a few laughs. I’ve got a feeling we’re going to need them more than usual before long.

Why worry? If you’ve done the very best you can, worrying won’t make it any better. I worry about many things, but not about water over the dam.

You’re dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway.

My mom was the person that I most looked up to for her point of view, her humor.

Having a child makes you realize the importance of life – narcissism goes out the window. Heaven on earth is looking at my little boy. The minute he was born, I knew if I never did anything other than being a mom, I’d be fine.

I’ve birthed an entire baby in less time than it takes my husband to poop.

Why do they call it rush hour when nothing moves?

Sometimes I wish I were a nicer person, but then I laugh and continue my day.

I would like to apologize to anyone I have not offended yet. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

Well at least your mom thinks you’re pretty.

My imaginary friend says that you need a therapist.

If you think nobody cares if you’re alive, try missing a couple of car payments.

If had a dollar for every smart thing you say. I’ll be poor.

Put an Englishman into the garden of Eden, and he would find fault with the whole blasted concern; put a Yankee in, and he would see where he could alter it to advantage; put an Irishman in, and he would want to boss the thing; put a Dutchman in, and he would proceed to plant it.

Some might consider this a problem,
I easily fall in love.

Before God we are all equally wise – and equally foolish.

The direction you choose to face determines whether you’re standing at the end or the beginning of a road.

If you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, you are looking the wrong way.

Each day is a new beginning. You can start fresh, anticipating what today will bring. Or you can just settle for yesterday’s doubts, fears, or worries. Which road will you take? Do you take the path to the clear present or the shadows of the past?

I no have education. I have inspiration. If I was educated, I would be a damn fool.

I’d say the people with REAL problems are the ones who produced this anime.

Tohru Honda: But I hope they can talk to each other without fighting.
Mine Kuramae: Well, even fighting is better than nothing. It’s at least proof

That’s why I was with you… I was always looking down on you, Kyo-kun…

The way you talk, Rin… It’s like it’s WRONG to be loved by your parents. Like peace is superficial… And a BAD thing.

What does the world look like through your eyes! You make me wonder.

This isn’t so bad, now, is it? You’re still in good shape and your clothes finally suit you.

Let a new moon usher in the month ahead, and start your month with a fresh perspective.

Be grateful for all the things you don’t have to worry about.

There are many ways to see the whole ‘starting over’ thing. You can see it as tedious, tiring and just shitty in general, or you can see it as a challenge to take on and win it.

I’m not a writer who teaches. I’m a teacher who writes.

Santiago: Hey, Tej. Look at you, rolling in a Ferrari, pockets full of cash!
Benito: Yeah, man. You used to be all Robin Hood, sharing all the money you got.
Santiago: You know what I’m telling you. Money changed you.
Tej: You’re right. It has changed me. I realized that money doesn’t grow on trees. It rains from the sky!

NATO Commander: I can’t believe they stole a seventy-ton tank for a three-ounce computer chip.
Hobbs: That three-ounce computer chip is more deadly than a thousand of those tanks.

When a blind man says, ‘God is good,’ this should be an eye-opener to those who can see.

Roman Pearce: You know, I think I make a better special agent than you ever did.
Brian: I guess that depends on how you define ‘special’.

Han: I thought we’d be robbing banks by now, not some gas truck in the middle of nowhere.
Letty: Down here, gas *is* gold, papa!

Brian: At least we know you can’t beat me straight up.
Dom: I didn’t know there were any rules.

If only we were crazy enough to be willing to ignore our mechanical and static perceptions we’d know that a half-filled coffee cup holds more secrets than, say, the Grand Canyon.

Your dreams may seem impossible to someone with insomnia.

Since the world is round,
There is no way to walk away
From each other, for even then
We are coming back together.
Some distances, if allowed to grow,
Are merely the greatest proximities.

There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.

Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen.

When we change the way we think, we change our lives. What most people do not understand is how powerful our thinking is and how involved it is in our health.

Rastafari not a culture, it’s a reality.

Yes, the real miracles are the thousands of tiny people who know exactly what they are doing. I used to look for inspiration in higher places but the higher you go like to Plato or God the less space there is in which to stand.

Grief, like glass, can be both a mirror & a window, enabling us to look both in & out, then & now & how. In other words, we become a window pain. Only somewhere in loss do we find the grace to gaze up & out of ourselves.

Never forget that to be alone has always been a price for some & a privilege for others.

When people go through something rough in life, they say, ‘I’m taking it one day at a time.’ Yes, so is everybody. Because that’s how time works.

You can only do things one day at a time, sport. Sometimes life is so bloody that’s the only way you can get through it. But the good bit about living one day at a time is that when nice things happen, you enjoy them more than people who are always thinking about the past or the future.

I like my life. I’ve had a good life. I think the reason is my parents taught me that life is a burden. But if you take it one day at a time, it’s an easy burden.

Life’s so full that you just take it one day at a time.

But you must have imperfect hours to get perfect hours. You must kill ten hours to make two hours live. What you must be careful of is not to kill ALL the hours, ALL the years.

It is a fine sunny day and great matters loom across the horizon of history. Carthage in my rearview mirror, I blend into Time.

It’s only when things are not going too badly for a while that we forget.

I know what a park bench is and the landlord’s knock. There are only two things wrong with money: too much or too little.

You never get a chance to explain to him that when a man puts that uniform on that he is the paid protector of things of the present time. He is here to see that things stay the way they are. If you like the way things are, then all cops are good cops. If you don’t like the way things are, then all cops are bad cops.

When I get out, I thought, I am going to wait a while and then I am going to come back to this place, I am going to look at it from the outside and know exactly what’s going on in there, and I’m going to stare at those walls and I’m going to make up my mind never to get on the inside of them again.

I think I sound crazy right now. I probably do, but I live in my own head, so it all makes sense to me.

Unplanned occurrences are reminders to check your tendency to think that you’re the one in control. In reality, it’s someone else… It is a vivid reminder that in ministry, no matter how hard you work, ultimately it’s God’s work, not yours. All this puts our work in perspective.

You are so beautiful to me.

You’ve made me feel beautiful when I thought I was nothing.

I have looked at you in millions of ways and I have loved you in each.

You may not always be perfect, but you will always be perfect for me.

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

I love you because you are beautiful, but not in a beauty contest way. You’re beautiful because you’re the one I love, and I don’t care if I’m the only one who thinks so.

True love will triumph in the end — which may or may not be a lie, but if it is a lie, it’s the most

Parting is all we know of heaven, and all we need of hell.

If people just took it a day at a time, they’d be a lot happier.

The struggles we endure today will be the ‘good old days’ we laugh about tomorrow.

You’re either living in the problem or you’re living in the solution.

Faith and fear both demand you believe in something you cannot see. You choose!

The money came, still wasn’t sunny for me after that.

You might feel worthless to one person, but you are priceless to another. Don’t ever forget your worth.

You need not specifically discuss the perspectives of different religions in your essay, so no research is necessary. Your knowledge, or lack thereof, has been established in the quizzes you’ve taken this semester. I am interested in how you are able to fit the uncontestable fact of suffering into your understanding of the world, and how you hope to navigate through life in spite of it.

I want to assure you that regardless of your circumstances, age, or sex, you can indeed start over, re-arousing from within yourself those earlier, more innocent expectations, feelings and beliefs. It is much better if you can imagine this endeavor more in the light of children’s play, in fact, rather than think of it as a deadly serious adult pursuit.

Wake up every morning with the thought that something wonderful is about to happen. Good Morning.

Good morning to you. Can you see how brightly the sun is shining this morning? That is proof that your day and your life is going to shine much more. Have a blessed day.

You don’t need a new day to start over, you only need a new mindset.

This isn’t the end of anything. It’s the beginning of everything!

Brian: Hey, wait, hold up! I don’t have any cash, but I do have the pink slip to my car.
Jesse: Wait, you just can’t climb in the ring with Ali ’cause you think you box!
Brian: He knows I can box! So check it out, it’s like this: If I lose, winner takes my car clean and clear. But if I win, I take the cash, and I take the respect!
Dom: Respect?
Brian: To some people, that’s more important.
Dom: …That your car?

I try to maintain the perspective that life is meant to be laughed at.

Sometimes we focus on the mess or the broken dream, but in all the mess God sees greatness. He knows how to take your troubles and turn them into trophies, how to take the test and make it your testimony.

If you believe in a God who controls the big things, you have to believe in a God who controls the little things. It is

What was closure if not a clock? Not an end as everyone imagined, but a beginning.

I bet you’ve never seen a pig fly. Well, you aren’t been looking through my eyes.

Think of aging as a new beginning and making the most of what you’ve got and what you didn’t have time to enjoy before!

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.

Even the worst moment, day or year will become a distant, blurry memory. Keep perspective by pretending to be a future version of yourself encouraging your current self to be confident, joyful, and carefree.

There is an advantage to driving a truck in that you are sitting high and can see over the car in front of you, as well as farther down the road.

All endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it at the time.

You must begin to see money as an obedient diligent servant that you can employ to earn more money that you can use to provide services far beyond the services you could ever provide.

How do I deal with people who look down on me? I look up at them.

Keep your chin up but not so high that you cannot see what is right in front of you.

I see…so that’s what being alone feels like. (internally) I wanted to see things from her perspective. I wanted to understand, even if only a little. After all, if I couldn’t, what would be the point of being with her?

Anybody that’s borderline brilliant — they’re gonna suffer with depression. Cause you don’t see the world how other people see the world. You see it for what it is. You see it different.

All paths are seen, through the prism of fate.

If at first you fail, try again. Start again with a new perspective, a new approach. Don’t be afraid to ask for help in the process.

Truckers don’t go gray, we turn chrome.

Learn from these monuments, whether we like them or not, and put them in their context.

Sometimes you lose a battle. But mischief always wins the war.

It’s Always Darkest Before the Dawn.

Gratitude is the most important attitude.

Prison was the best thing that ever happened to me.

When I was very young… …My world consisted only of Akito, my mother… …And whatever I could glimpse through the sliding paper door.

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

In the end, you will understand that it was simpler than you envisioned when you were beginning.

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.

Infinity is the end. End without infinity is but a new beginning.

There will come a time when you believe everything is finished; that will be the beginning.

Hit the reset button. Whatever happened yesterday, forget about it. Get a new perspective. Today is a new day. Fresh start, begins now.

What feels like the end is often the beginning.

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

You’ll never find your place in God’s plan until you have the correct perspective of yourself.

My lyrics aren’t offensive. Some people find everything offensive.

I know you hookers don’t think this is over with.

Keep a beautiful smile on your face as you wake up from your bed, look forward to a beautiful day for you, God is enough for you, good morning.

I hadn’t slept for seven nights.

My mother told me I must have slept, it was impossible not to sleep in all that time, but if I slept, it was with my eyes wide open, for I had followed the green, luminous course of the second hand and the minute hand and the hour hand of the bedside clock through their circles and semi-circles, every night for seven nights, without missing a second, or a minute, or an hour.

The reason I hadn’t washed my clothes or my hair was because it seemed so silly.

I saw the days of the year stretching ahead like a series of bright, white boxes, and separating one box from another was sleep, like a black shade. Only for me, the long perspective of shades that set off one box from the next had suddenly snapped up, and I could see day after day after day glaring ahead of me like a white, broad, infinitely desolate avenue.

It seemed silly to wash one day when I would only have to wash again the next.

It made me tired just to think of it.

I wanted to do everything once and for all and be through with it.

In its early stages, insomnia is almost an oasis in which those who have to think or suffer darkly take refuge.

Most people do not consider dawn to be an attractive experience—unless they are still up.

I don’t sleep
I am friends with time who passes by in front of my open eyes
The clock can go for a long time, to my surprise
I am familiar with the dark yet light blue of the sky at dawn
I lay there in my bed, waiting, wishing, for the
sweet release but it doesn’t come
Everyone is asleep and I hear every breath and every snore
It can be a very interesting thing or such a bore
I don’t sleep.

Make the most of the best and best of the worst, and keep your standards high. Never settle for anything less than you deserve or are capable of achieving.

Grief can be a burden, but also an anchor. You get used to the weight, how it holds you in place.

We often take for granted the simple fact that we can get out of bed in the morning.

Being old gave [Sophie] an entirely new view of Fanny. She was a lady who was still young and pretty, and she had found the hat shop as boring as Sophie did. But she had stuck with it and done her best, both with the shop and with the three girls—until Mr. Hatter had died. Then she had suddenly been afraid she was just like Sophie: old with no reason, and nothing to show for it.

‘You know this could kill me, don’t you?’
‘Look on the bright side,’ said Howl. ‘It could be me it kills.’

How you say a lot about how you look. I am a Barber because it’s a state of Mind.

Gratitude changes everything. Be thankful today.

I am happy because I’m grateful. I choose to be grateful. That gratitude allows me to be happy.

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 grateful for the things and people you have in your life. Things you take for granted someone else is praying for.

Gratitude has a self-sustaining effect on one’s outlook.

Be grateful for the negative things in your life because they helped you see the good in things you hadn’t previously seen.

There is light at the end of every tunnel. To get there just follow the silver lining.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel. It can’t go lower. It can only go up.

To the pessimist the light at the end of the tunnel is another train.

I am grateful for the things in my life will be the center of my attention today.

I always see the light at the end of the tunnel before I enter the cave.

An Englishman will take you into a large room, beautifully proportioned, and will point out to you that it is white -all over white- and somebody will say what exquisite taste. You know in your own mind, in your own soul, that it is not taste at all, that is the want of taste, that is mere evasion. English music is white and evades everything.

Seems like the light at the end of the tunnel maybe you.

When the picture is too close to your face you lose the sight, when the future is too close to your face you see the light.

An Englishman thinks a hundred miles is a long way; and American thinks a hundred years is a long time.

I think the French have a romantic cliche that Englishmen have great style, great music, irony and sense of humour. Well, sometimes cliches are true.

In the eyes of the Englishman, the Frenchman is a dog, the Spaniard a fool, the German a drunkard, the Italian a bandit. Only the Englishman is the pinnacle of perfection and nature’s masterpiece.

A little dirt, never hurt.

The trees, the flowers, the plants grow in silence. The stars, the sun, the moon move in silence. Silence gives us a new perspective.
