Quotes
I'm a sucker for a good quote (or a good song lyric). Quotes are a good way for you to connect with somebody elses' thoughts, and it allows you to really think about some situations. When I find a quote that I can relate to, my mind is opened up, and I find myself thinking about life in different ways. Here are some of my favorite quotes:To me, this quote is talking about laying all your dreams out onto the table, and taking chances. It may not end up the way you want it to, but at least you'll know that you've tried. Some people won't be considerate about what you believe in, and they'll walk over you, but in the end, you have to always keep on trying until you finally achieve what you've been fighting for."I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams." -- W.B. Yeats
Another one of my favorite quotes! I can really relate to this quote, because it's talking about how if you have a dream, then instead of just sitting around and waiting for it to miraculously happen, you have to get up and go toward the direction of your dreams. No one is going to help you with your dream, so the only person you can rely on is yourself. Don't let anyone keep you down, and like the quote says "Live the life you have imagined.""Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." -- Henry David Thoreau
Well, I'm not exactly sure if John Legend came up with this quote, but he said it during one of his concerts, and it really made sense to me. Everyone is always trying to find that one person they can live with, but what about that person you can't live without? I never saw relationships in that light before, but now, I like at everything so much differently. Instead of going with that one person who is pleasant, and makes you feel relatively happy, why not go with the person that drives you insane, but is the one you can't live without?"Instead of finding someone you can live with, find someone you can't live without." -- John Legend
This quote comes from a song called "Wish You Were" on her CD Don't Look Away. This basically sums up everything for me. I always find myself being enamored in the form that I wish someone would take -- not who they actually are. I build them up to be someone that they're not, and when I finally figure out who they really are, I'm crushed. The fact is that I have to stop dreaming of what I wish someone is like, and actually see them for who they are -- whether it be horrible, nasty, or shallow. So, what are some quotes (or song lyrics) that you can relate to?"...I'm still in love with who I wish you were..." -- Kate Voegele, Wish You Were
