A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others Wizard of Oz
Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love. Rumi
But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it’s better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you’re fighting for. Paulo Coelho
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. ‘Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death. Thomas Merton
I was once what you are, and what I am you will become Quote written Masaccio’s “Holy Trinity”
You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist. Ghandi
Love takes off the masks we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. James Baldwin
I have a theory that every time you make an important choice, the part of you left behind continues the other life you could have had. Jeanette Winterson
