it's a universal truth.

The ones that stay with you through everything -
they're your true best friends.
Don't let go of them.
Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world.

moving joyously, without bothering about any destination.

Not everyone is always going to like what you do.
Your job application, your book proposal,

behind you in the supermarket checkout line

Don't take it personally.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant.

- John Lennon

to a cause greater than oneself.
