“Other people make the rules and you have to figure out how to break the rules without hurting anyone.”


“You have been told that, even like a chain, you are as weak as your weakest link.

― The Prophet

“Do you understand how amazing it is to hear that from an adult? Do you know how amazing it is to hear that from anybody? It's one of the simplest sentences in the world, just four words, but they're the four hugest words in the world when they're put together.
You can do it.
I can do it.
Let's do it.”
