“We pay a price for everything we get or take in this world; and although ambitions are well worth having, they are not to be cheaply won, but exact their dues of work and self denial, anxiety and discouragement.”
― Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“All changes… have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.”
― Amy Cuddy, Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”
― John Lennon

“I am larger, better than I thought, I did not know I held so much goodness.”
