    Stephen  King
    “I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
    I aim with my eye.

    I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
    I shoot with my mind.

    I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.
    I kill with my heart.”
    Stephen King, The Gunslinger

    could set
    it on fire”

    Rupi Kaur
    “i want to apologize to all the women i have called beautiful
    before i’ve called them intelligent or brave
    i am sorry i made it sound as though
    something as simple as what you’re born with
    is all you have to be proud of
    when you have broken mountains with your wit
    from now on i will say things like
    you are resilient, or you are extraordinary
    not because i don’t think you’re beautiful
    but because i need you to know
    you are more than that”

    Rupi Kaur
    “most importantly love
    like it's the only thing you know how
    at the end of the day all this
    means nothing
    this page
    where you're sitting
    your degree
    your job
    the money
    nothing even matters
    except love and human connection
    who you loved
    and how deeply you loved them
    how you touched the people around you
    and how much you gave them”
    Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

    Rupi Kaur
    “i don’t know what living a balanced life feels like
    when i am sad
    i don’t cry i pour
    when i am happy
    i don’t smile i glow
    when i am angry
    i don’t yell i burn
    the good thing about
    feeling in extremes
    is when i love
    i give them wings
    but perhaps
    that isn't
    such a good thing
    cause they always
    tend to leave and
    you should see me
    when my heart is broken
    i don't grieve
    i shatter”
    Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

    Rupi Kaur
    “your art
    is not about how many people
    like your work
    your art
    is about
    if your heart likes your work
    if your soul likes your work
    it's about how honest
    you are with yourself
    and you
    must never
    trade honesty
    for relatability”
    Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

  • #18
    Rupi Kaur
    “apparently it is ungraceful of me
    to mention my period in public
    cause the actual biology
    of my body is too real

    it is okay to sell what's
    between a woman's legs
    more than it is okay to
    mention its inner workings

    the recreational use of
    this body is seen as
    beautiful while
    its nature is
    seen as ugly”
    Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

Don't let the sun go down without saying thank you to someone, and without admitting to yourself that absolutely no one gets this far alone.”
    Stephen King
