Be sure to taste your words before you spit them out.

Life
The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.
Many people are so poor because the only thing they have is money.
Learn to appreciate the things you have before time forces you appreciate the things you once had.
When you choose to see the good in others, you end up finding the good in yourself.
You dont drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
Its better to know and be disappointed than to never know and always wonder.
There are things that we dont want to happen but have to accept, things we dont want to know but have to learn, and people we cant live without but have to let go.
Happiness is not determined by whats happening around you, but rather whats happening inside you. Most people depend on others to gain happiness, but the truth is, it always comes from within.
If you tell the truth, it becomes a part of your past. If you lie, it becomes a part of your future.
What you do every day matters more than what you do every once in a while. Read The Power of Habit.
You cant start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.
Things turn out best for people who make the best out of the way things turn out.
If you dont like something, change it. If you cant change it, change the way you think about it.
Listen to me, understand what I say and realize one day how much I care.
No I wont drop you, like everybody else does.
In the end we always return to the people that were there in the beginning.
I can trust you with my darkest secrets.
I'm always trying to be there for you.
A best friend likes you for who you are on the inside, not outside.
I need someone to lean on to sometimes when I'm in trouble.
I'm here to help you, not helping you cheat at school, but with troubles advice.
Having a friend is like having a close family member, someone to tell things to and trust them to not tell anyone.
Everyone needs a friend in life because when they are lost, they need a friend or a close family member to guide back.
Everyone wants to be happy, having a friend is like having a million treasures.
Keep people in your life who truly love you, motivate you, encourage you, enhance you, and make you happy. If you know people who do none of these things, let them go.
People say, Find good people and let go of the bad ones. But it should be, Find the good in people and let go of the bad. No one is perfect.
Being alone does not mean you are lonely, and being lonely does not mean you are alone.
Love is not about sex, going on fancy dates, or showing off. Its about being with a person who makes you happy in a way nobody else can.
Anyone can come into your life and say how much they love you. It takes someone really special to stay in your life and show how much they love you.
Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Dont save it for a special occasion; today is special.
Love and appreciate your parents. We are often so busy growing up, we forget they are also growing old.
When you have to start compromising yourself and your morals for the people around you, its probably time to change the people around you.
Learn to love yourself first, instead of loving the idea of other people loving you.
When someone tells you, Youve changed, it might simply be because youve stopped living your life their way.
Someone else doesnt have to be wrong for you to be right.
Be happy. Be yourself. If others dont like it, then let them be. Happiness is a choice. Life isnt about pleasing everybody.
When youre up, your friends know who you are. When youre down, you know who your friends are.
Dont look for someone who will solve all your problems; look for someone who will face them with you.
If you expect the world to be fair with you because you are fair, youre fooling yourself. Thats like expecting the lion not to eat you because you didnt eat him.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.
Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly.
No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isnt trying.
If a person wants to be a part of your life, they will make an obvious effort to do so. Think twice before reserving a space in your heart for people
who do not make an effort to stay.
Making one person smile can change the world maybe not the whole world, but their world.
Saying someone is ugly doesnt make you any prettier.
The only normal people you know are the ones you dont know very well.
Life is 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it.
The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.
Its better to be alone than to be in bad company.
As we grow up, we realize it becomes less important to have more friends and more important to have real ones.
Making a hundred friends is not a miracle. The miracle is to make a single friend who will stand by your side even when hundreds are against you.
Giving up doesnt always mean youre weak, sometimes it means you are strong enough and smart enough to let go and move on.
Dont say you dont have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresea, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, Albert Einstein, etc
If you really want to do something, youll find a way. If you dont, youll find an excuse.
Als je alles loslaat, heb je twee handen vrij om de toekomst te grijpen
Als er twee wegen zijn, neem dan de moeilijke, want op de gemakkelijke is het meestal dringen
Doe wat je altijd deed en je zult krijgen wat je altijd kreeg
Het is geen schande om langzaam vooruit te komen, wel om blijvend stil te blijven staan
Ook halverwege de berg kun je mooi uitzicht hebben
Niet het vallen is erg, maar het blijven liggen waar je gevallen bent
Een tak die niet meebuigt met de wind, zal breken
Geef mij de kracht om te veranderen wat ik kan veranderen, de tolerantie om te accepteren wat ik niet kan veranderen en de wijsheid om het onderscheid tussen die twee te maken
Als je aarzelt, groeit je angst; als je waagt, groeit je moed
Wat niet kan, is nog nooit gebeurd
Eén kaars kan duizenden andere kaarsen aansteken zonder haar eigen levensduur te verkorten
You never really stop loving someone. You just learn to live without them.
Some people come into our lives, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never the same.
Falling in love is awfully simply, but falling out of love is simply awful.
The hottest love has the coldest end.
I don't know why they call it heartbreak. It feels like other part of my body is broken too.
Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing.
As soon as forever is through, I'll be over you.
The best way to mend a broken heart is time and girlfriends.
Cry as I may, these tears won't wash away.
We always ignore the ones who adore us, and adore those who ignore us.
