Elizabeth Gilbert
“Having a baby is like getting a tattoo on your face. You really need to be certain it's what you want before you commit.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

Albert Einstein
“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”
Albert Einstein

Elizabeth Gilbert
“I have a history of making decisions very quickly about men. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching his highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. Many times in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

Elizabeth Gilbert
“I think I deserve something beautiful.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

Elizabeth Gilbert
“In desperate love, we always invent the characters of our partners, demanding they be what we need of them, and then feeling devastated when they refuse to perform the role we created in the first place.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
