"Dance like no one is watching.
Sing like no one is listening.
Love like you've never been hurt
and live like it's heaven on Earth."
Mark Twain

Dr. Seuss

"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be."
Douglas Adams

"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
Anaïs Nin

"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.
Delicious Ambiguity. "
Gilda Radner
