Samantha Abeel famous quotes

Depression makes you seek lonely places, and that is what I started doing during the second semester of my first year in college.

Poetry leads us to the unstructured sources of our beings, to the unknown, and returns us to our rational, structured selves refreshed. Having once experienced the mystery, plenitude, contradiction, and composure of a work of art, we afterward have a built-in resistance to the slogans and propaganda of oversimplification that have often contributed to the destruction of human life. Poetry is a verbal means to a nonverbal source. It is a motion to no-motion, to the still point of contemplation and deep realization.

You can't be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.
