"I’m always anxious thinking I’m not living my life to the fullest, y’know? Taking advantage of every possibility? Just making sure that I’m not wasting one second of the little time I have." -Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

"The saddest kind of sad is the sad that tries not to be sad. You know, when Sad tries to bite its lip and not cry and smile and go, “No, I’m happy for you”? That’s when it’s really sad." -John Mayer

"I want to be ripped apart by music. I want it to be something that feeds and replenishes, or that totally sucks the life out of you. I want to be dashed against the rocks." -Jeff Buckley

"I have this theory of convergence, that good things always happen with bad things. I know you have to deal with them at the same time, but I just don’t know why they have to happen at the same time. I just wish I could work out some schedule. Am I just babbling? Do you know what I mean?" -Say Anything

"Love isn't an act. It's a whole life. It's staying with her now because she needs you; it's knowing you and she will still care about each other when sex and daydreams, fights and futures- when all that's on the shelf and done with. Love-why, I'll tell you what love is: it's you at 75 and her at 71, each of you listening for the other's step in the next room, each afraid that a sudden silence, a sudden cry, could mean a lifetime's talk is over." -Brian Moore

"She likened it to a childhood crush, such strong almost obsessive feelings, but more, it had depth. She felt attracted to everything about him, the way he talked, the way he dressed, the words he used, his apparent innocence. Yet he was filled with a deep knowledge of wise insights. He always said the right things, even when she didn’t want to hear them. The darkness lifted and she could suddenly see beyond. When he breezed into the room, he brought clarity and brightness with him. He was walking hope and she could tell that things for her be… not fantastic or wonderful or happily ever after, but that they could be okay. And that was enough." -Cecelia Ahern, If You Could See Me Now

"You couldn’t just pick and choose at will when someone depended on you, or loved you. It wasn’t like a light switch, easy to shut on or off. If you were in, you were in. Out, you were out. To me, it didn’t seem complicated at all. In fact, it was the simplest thing in the world." -Along for the Ride

"It was so easy to disown what you couldn’t recognize, to keep yourself apart from things that were foreign and unsettling. The only person you can be sure to control, always, is yourself. Which is a lot to be sure of, but at the same time, not enough." -Along for the Ride

"Maybe the truth was, it shouldn’t be easy to be amazing. Then everything would be. It’s the things you fight for and struggle with before earning that have the greatest worth.

"It’s like those days when one song you’ve listened to hundreds of times hits you just right, at that moment when the planets align and your chest doesn’t move because you can’t remember to take a breath. The moment it all comes together and seems so poignant, so exact, important and never has a song been more powerful and immense even though you’ve been singing along to it consistently for sixteen years. Yeah, its like that.
Like if you could squeeze your eyelids together hard enough you could transfer you soul into that song and you wouldn’t have to worry about bills or beef or responsibility or holidays or eating spoiled food. Like the half awake zombie state after a long day of work where your feet feel strangely warm and comfortable and you know if you kept your eyes closed longer than ten seconds you would be asleep. It’s a magic time that is impossible to predict. That is impossible to improve upon. That is impossible to reach. But it’s a moment that you wish you could live forever inside." -Christopher Gutierrez

"I love talking about nothing. It is the only thing I know anything about." -Oscar Wilde

"You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by. It’s actions, not words, that matter." -Nicholas Sparks

"Any idiot can face a crisis - it’s day to day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov

"In a way, it was sort of depressing, too, because you kept wondering what the hell would happen to all of them. When they got out of school and college, I mean. You figured most of them would probably marry dopey guys. Guys that always talk about how many miles they get to a gallon in their goddam cars. Guys that get sore and childish as hell if you beat them at golf, or even just some stupid game like ping-pong. Guys that are very mean. Guys that never read books. Guys that are very boring." -The Catcher in the Rye

"I want to be all used up when I die." -George Bernard Shaw

"You see two people and you think they belong together, but nothing happens. The thought of losing so much control over personal happiness is unbearable. You love someone, you open yourself up to suffering, and that’s the sad truth. Maybe they’ll break your heart, maybe you’ll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. That’s the burden. Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens that allow us to fly." -Bones

"I think that sometimes we love people so much that we become numb to it.. because if we actually felt how much we really loved them, it would kill us. That doesn’t make you a bad person, it just means your heart is too big." -Riding in Cars with Boys

"Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the human heart can hold." -Zelda Fitzgerald

"Lost people are different. They will drive around in the same circle over and over rather than try a new path. Their fear of getting more lost paralyzed them into staying lost in the area that’s just become familiar. It supersedes their ability to chart a new course. They circle and backtrack and stay comfortably lost because it’s less scary than seeing something different than what’s presently in front of them." -Jill Davis, Ask Again Later

"My hunger, my thirst, my loneliness and boredom and fear were all weapons aimed at my enemy, the world. They didn’t matter a whit to the world, of course, and they tormented me, but I got a gruesome satisfaction from my sufferings. They proved my existence. All my integrity seemed to lie in saying No." -Girl, Interrupted

"Too many guys think I’m a concept, or I complete them, or I’m gonna make them alive. But I’m just a fucked-up girl who’s lookin’ for my own peace of mind; don’t assign me yours." -Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

"Sometimes I think people don’t understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don’t matter." -Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

"I don’t care if the whole world is against you or teasing you or saying you’re not gonna make it. Believe in yourself. No matter what. They laughed at the Wright brothers. They laughed at Thomas Edison. They laughed at Disney. Study the greats and become greater." -Michael Jackson

"Enthusiastic people are the ones who actually get things done in this world. Enthusiasm is what turns any idea into reality. And enthusiasm is linked closely with happiness." -Roy Sheppard

"I’m not good at future planning. I don’t plan at all. I don’t know what I’m doing tomorrow. I don’t have a day planner and I don’t have a diary. I completely live in the now, not in the past, not in the future." -Heath Ledger

"No matter what your heartache may be, laughing helps you forget it for a few seconds." -Red Skelton

"Love is being stupid together." -Paul Valery
