I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control
“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
Marilyn Monroe

David Foster Wallace
“If you can think of times in your life that you’ve treated people with extraordinary decency and love, and pure uninterested concern, just because they were valuable as human beings. The ability to do that with ourselves. To treat ourselves the way we would treat a really good, precious friend. Or a tiny child of ours that we absolutely loved more than life itself. And I think it’s probably possible to achieve that. I think part of the job we’re here for is to learn how to do it”
David Foster Wallace

Dr. Seuss
“I know, up on top you are seeing great sights, but down here at the bottom we, too, should have rights.”
Dr. Seuss, Yertle the Turtle and Gertrude McFuzz

Elise Broach
“My dad always says, some people will treat you badly and you can't help that. But how you handle it and how it makes you feel, that's up to you.”
Elise Broach, Shakespeare's Secret

George Bernard Shaw
“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”
George Bernard Shaw
