“It's funny because when you're a child, you believe you can be anything you want to be, go wherever you want to go. There's no limit to what you can dream. You expect the unexpected, you believe in magic, in fairy tales, and in possibilities. Then you grow older and that innocence is shattered and somewhere along the way the reality of life gets in the way and you're hit by the realization that you can't be all you wanted to be, you just might have to settle for a little bit less.

Or perhaps a variation of what you once wanted.

Why do we stop believing in ourselves? Why do we let facts and figures and anything but dreams rule our lives?”
― Cecelia Ahern, Love, Rosie

“consider the implications. We think we know what we want, but we can never really know until we've got it. And sometimes when we have, we discover we never really wanted it in the first place - but then it's too late”
― Alexandra Potter, Be Careful What You Wish For

“Perhaps I’ve been rushing my whole entire life, jumping into things headfirst without thinking them through. Running through the days without noticing the minutes.”
― Cecelia Ahern, Thanks for the Memories

“من يقرأ التاريخ لا يدخل اليأس إلى قلبه أبداً وسوف يرى الدنيا أياماً يداولها الله بين الناس. الأغنياء يصبحون فقراء, والفقراء ينقلبون أغنياء, وضعفاء الأمس أقوياء اليوم, وحكام الأمس مشردوا اليوم,والقضاه متهمون, والغالبون مغلبون والفلك دوار والحياة لا تقف.”
― مصطفى محمود, من أمريكا إلى الشاطئ الآخر
