"You had to endure something yourself before it touched you."

--

Daphne du Maurier

“The bravest sight in all this world is a man fighting against odds.”
“I'm a really optimistic, positive person, but I've been heartbroken on a social and political level, heartbroken on a personal level and anywhere in between. I think heartbreak is one of the best artist's catalysts for creation. That doesn't mean one should look for heartbreak; I don't agree with that. At a certain point you can use heartbreaks from other people's stories, your own life or before. You don't have to dwell on heartbreak.”
“Remember; no matter how desperate the situation seems, time spent thinking clearly is never time wasted.”

“Choices are like connecting highways. They all take you to the same place. Some just take longer to get there.”

“And then came the nineties, when management, suddenly frightened that they had ceded control to the players, sought to restore baseball's profitability by 'running the game like a business.'”
“Changing your life means changing your past.”
“Panic is a horrible thing.”
