    Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not?
    Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.”
    George Carlin

    Marilyn Monroe
    “I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night — there must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.”
    Marilyn Monroe

  • #5
    Alice Sebold
    “Sometimes the dreams that come true are the dreams you never even knew you had.”
    Alice Sebold, The Lovely Bones

  • #6
    Leonardo da Vinci
    “You will never have a greater or lesser dominion than that over yourself...the height of a man's success is gauged by his self-mastery; the depth of his failure by his self-abandonment. ...And this law is the expression of eternal justice. He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others.”
    Leonardo da Vinci

  • #7
    A.S. Byatt
    “He had been violently confused by her real presence in the opposite inaccessible corner. For months he had been possessed by the imagination of her. She had been distant and closed away, a princess in a tower, and his imagination’s work had been all to make her present, all of her, to his mind and senses, the quickness of her and the mystery, the whiteness of her, which was part of her extreme magnetism, and the green look of those piercing or occluded eyes. Her presence had been unimaginable, or more strictly, only to be imagined. Yet here she was, and he was engaged in observing the ways in which she resembled, or differed from, the woman he dreamed, or reached for in sleep, or would fight for.”
    A. S. Byatt

  • #8
    Candace Bushnell
    “Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates and guys are just people to have fun with.”
    Candace Bushnell, Sex and the City

  • #9
    Angela N. Blount
    “I didn't just love him…I needed him. Not in some desperate "you complete me" sort of way. No, Vincent didn’t make me whole. He improved me. Something about him—something I didn't understand—had a way of amplifying the good in my nature while muting the bad. He was a catalyst for my soul. I didn't need him in order to exist...I needed him in order to be a better me.”
    Angela N. Blount, Once Upon an Ever After

  • #10
    Steve Maraboli
    “The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.”
    Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

  • #11
    Stephen  King
    “Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”
    Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

  • #12
    Deborah Reber
    “Letting go doesn't mean that you don't care about someone anymore. It's just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself.”
    Deborah Reber, Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul: 101 Stories of Life, Love and Learning

  • #13
    Steve Maraboli
    “Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.”
    Steve Maraboli

  • #14
    Steve Maraboli
    “If people refuse to look at you in a new light and they can only see you for what you were, only see you for the mistakes you've made, if they don't realize that you are not your mistakes, then they have to go.”
    Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

  • #15
    Steve Maraboli
    “Cry. Forgive. Learn. Move on. Let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness.”
    Steve Maraboli

  • #16
    C. JoyBell C.
    “We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better.”
    C. JoyBell C.

  • #17
    Steve Maraboli
    “Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.”
    Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

  • #18
    Shannon L. Alder
    “If you spend your time hoping someone will suffer the consequences for what they did to your heart, then you're allowing them to hurt you a second time in your mind.”
    Shannon L. Alder

  • #19
    Mandy Hale
    “Sometimes it takes a heartbreak to shake us awake & help us see we are worth so much more than we're settling for.”

  • #20
    Michael Bassey Johnson
    “If you truly want to be respected by people you love, you must prove to them that you can survive without them.”

    I get a little bit stronger”
    Sara Evans

  • #22
    Roman Payne
    “I was surrounded by friends, my work was immense, and pleasures were abundant. Life, now, was unfolding before me, constantly and visibly, like the flowers of summer that drop fanlike petals on eternal soil. Overall, I was happiest to be alone; for it was then I was most aware of what I possessed. Free to look out over the rooftops of the city. Happy to be alone in the company of friends, the company of lovers and strangers. Everything, I decided, in this life, was pure pleasure.”
    Roman Payne, Rooftop Soliloquy

  • #23
    John Lennon
    “As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.”
    John Lennon

  • #24
    “The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it. ”
    Roseanne Barr

  • #25
    Karen Joy Fowler
    “Arriving late was a way of saying that your own time was more valuable than the time of the person who waited for you.”
    Karen Joy Fowler, The Jane Austen Book Club

  • #26
    Rose Macaulay
    “The superior thing, in this as in other departments of life, was to be late. Lateness showed that serene contempt for the illusion we call time which is so necessary to ensure the respect of others and oneself. Only the servile are punctual...”
    Rose Macaulay , Mystery at Geneva

    Shannon L. Alder
    “Dignity
    /ˈdignitē/ noun

    1. The moment you realize that the person you cared for has nothing intellectually or spiritually to offer you, but a headache.

    2. The moment you realize God had greater plans for you that don’t involve crying at night or sad Pinterest quotes.

    3. The moment you stop comparing yourself to others because it undermines your worth, education and your parent’s wisdom.

    4. The moment you live your dreams, not because of what it will prove or get you, but because that is all you want to do. People’s opinions don’t matter.

    5. The moment you realize that no one is your enemy, except yourself.

    6. The moment you realize that you can have everything you want in life. However, it takes timing, the right heart, the right actions, the right passion and a willingness to risk it all. If it is not yours, it is because you really didn’t want it, need it or God prevented it.

    7. The moment you realize the ghost of your ancestors stood between you and the person you loved. They really don't want you mucking up the family line with someone that acts anything less than honorable.

    8. The moment you realize that happiness was never about getting a person. They are only a helpmate towards achieving your life mission.

    9. The moment you believe that love is not about losing or winning. It is just a few moments in time, followed by an eternity of situations to grow from.

    10. The moment you realize that you were always the right person. Only ignorant people walk away from greatness.”
    Shannon L. Alder

    Emily Brontë
    “I have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind. And this is one: I'm going to tell it - but take care not to smile at any part of it.”
    Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

  • #29
    Criss Jami
    “Closed in a room, my imagination becomes the universe, and the rest of the world is missing out.”
    Criss Jami, Diotima, Battery, Electric Personality

  • #30
    “Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the cheerful, the planners, the doers, the successful people with their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground. Let their spirit ignite a fire within you to leave this world better than when you found it...”
    Wilferd Peterson
