Zig Ziglar
“Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days.”
Zig Ziglar

John Green
“The world is not a wish-granting factory.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

Téa Obreht
“Wash the bones, bring the body, leave the heart behind.”
Tea Obreht, The Tiger's Wife

Elif Shafak
“Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation. If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we haven't loved enough.”
Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“This is an important lesson to remember when you're having a bad day, a bad month, or a shitty year. Things will change: you won't feel this way forever. And anyway, sometimes the hardest lessons to learn are the ones your soul needs most. I believe you can't feel real joy unless you've felt heartache. You can't have a sense of victory unless you know what it means to fail. You can't know what it's like to feel holy until you know what it's like to feel really fucking evil. And you can't be birthed again until you've died.”
Kelly Cutrone, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside: And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You
