Time
Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but cannot get more time.
-Jim John
Creativity
Creativity is just creating things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.
-Steve Jobs
Death and Love
Those that we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch. Paint…and memory…and love.
-Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Act Four, Scene Four
Bleeding
There’s nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.
-Ernest Hemingway
Words Fail
No, I’d rather pretend I’m something better than
These broken parts
Pretend I’m something other than
This mess that I am
‘Cause then I don’t have to look at it
And no one gets to look at it
No, no one can really see
-Words Fail from Dear Evan Hansen
Louder (or I pulled this straight from my diary because the pain in those words are unduplicatable)
Actions speak louder than words, but not nearly as often.
-Mark Twain
Whiplash (or I can’t remember if I took my medicine yesterday or not)
Were you rushing or were you dragging?
-Whiplash (2014)
Favors (or why I’m not being irrational & why everything is NOT fine)
Irrational thoughts were the ones with the power to burn a hole in your gut.
-Keith Ablow
Truth (Or Why I Don’t Believe Any Words)
I believe that everything happens for a reason: People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together.
-Marylin Monroe
