Some people are a sky full of stars, others are a blanket of cloud. The sky can change with the slightest breeze, but people rarely do. They are what they are.

Life is an invisible cage for birds who don’t learn to see the bars it builds around them. When the door is left open you have to fly.

We’re all built from invisible scars, building blocks of heartbreak, shame, regret, disappointment making us taller, stronger, harder to knock down.

The truth isn’t as valuable as people think. Time with the people you love most is worth so much more than money or truth or doing the right thing.

But people see what they want to see, hear what they want to hear, and think what they want to think.

I think love is a filter that turns everything ugly about a person into something that appears beautiful.

Feelings are like visitors, they come and they go, and sometimes they stay when uninvited.

Human beings are already the most dangerous species on the planet. When people know they are dying anyway, and have nothing left to lose, they’ll take the rest of the world down with them knowing they’ll never have to pay the price. When you remove consequences, you get chaos. Even people you would never have thought capable of murder can turn into monsters when they think their time is up.

Knowledge is power but there are some things it is better to not know.

Death comes for us all but we waste time wondering why instead of when.
