I hate when I’m at the Golden Globes and some dude hands me Meryl Streep’s glasses like oh great now I gotta be responsible for Meryl Streep’s glasses.

Quotes

So, I was randomly going through old Word Documents on my computer, and I found a list of really good quotes that I’ve saved over time. So I thought I’d share them. : )

A friend is someone you lets you have total freedom to be yourself –Jim Morrison

“Don’t rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can’t love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.”—Stacey Charter”

“The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be”—Marcel Pagnol”

Everyone says love hurts. That’s not true…Loneliness hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality, love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and helps someone feel wonderful again.

“There are those people you encounter in life who you never really get over. No matter how many other people you meet, people who treat you better and love you better, in the back of your mind, there’s always that person you can’t quite completely forget.”

“Time and time again, I make a fool of myself. But I’d rather learn from my own mistakes than take no risks watching from the sidelines.”

 ”The trick is to experience, not anticipate.”
