Brian L. Weiss
“Forgive the past. It is over. Learn from it and let go. People are constantly changing and growing. Do not cling to a limited, disconnected, negative image of a person in the past. See that person now. Your relationship is always alive and changing.”
Brian Weiss, Messages from the Masters: Tapping into the Power of Love

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“Whenever I talk to anyone I care about, I am always seeking approval. There is always a pleading lilt in my voice that demands love. Even the people I work with, the ones I am supposed to have a professional relationship with, all business, get pulled into my need. I can't help it. I want to be adored.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

Elizabeth Wurtzel
“Pick a man, any man. Every guy I fall for becomes Jesus Christ within the first twenty-four hours of our relationship. I know that this happens, I see it happening, I even feel myself, sometimes, standing at some temporal crossroads, some distinct moment at which I can walk away and keep it from happening, but I never do. I grab at everything, I end up with nothing, and then I feel bereft. I mourn for the loss of something I never even had.”
Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

Albert Camus
“To be happy, we must not be too concerned with others.”
Albert Camus

“Depression is about as close as you get to somewhere between dead and alive, and it's the worst.”
