“Some damage is too severe, some harm endures. And what you have to do is accept it. And by accept it I mean, don’t be the paralyzed person in the bed who is waiting to walk again. Realize, it’s never gonna happen. And find some other way to get around –swing from a vine, get a Mad Max wheelchair. Anything but…wait.”
― Augusten Burroughs

“Blessed is the influence of one true, loving human soul on another.”
― George Eliot

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
― Anais Nin
