― Charles Bukowski, The Last Night of the Earth Poems

“wishing upon every shooting star isn’t the way your dreams will come true.  taking your fate into your own hands is how your dreams will come true.  so work hard.  work harder.  work even harder.  —make it happen.  ”
― Amanda Lovelace, Break Your Glass Slippers

“We live and breathe words. .... It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them. Reading your words, what you wrote, how you were lonely sometimes and afraid, but always brave; the way you saw the world, its colors and textures and sounds, I felt--I felt the way you thought, hoped, felt, dreamt. I felt I was dreaming and thinking and feeling with you. I dreamed what you dreamed, wanted what you wanted--and then I realized that truly I just wanted you.”
― Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

“fairy godmother says some days, your body will feel like a cage. on those days, lace flowers through the bars.”
