When a man says I cannot, he has made a suggestion to himself. He has weakened his power of accomplishing that which otherwise would have been accomplished.

Classic and yet, Romantic.
inyi-minyi:
Classic and yet, Romantic.
When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine, birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
If I’d been out ‘til quarter to three, would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I’m sixty-four?
You’ll be older too
Ah, and if you say the word, I could stay with you
I could be handy, mending a fuse when your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside, Sunday mornings, go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds, who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I’m sixty-four?
Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight if it’s not to, dear
We shall scrimp and save
Ah, grandchildren on your knee, Vera, Chuck and Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, yours sincerely wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form, mine forever more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I’m sixty-four?
so, will you?

If You Want Something You’ve Never Had
If you want something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done.
– Thomas Jefferson
Do Not Look Back
Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering
– Lucas Scott – One Tree Hill (via quote-book)
Kalau Kau Tak Sanggup
Kalau kau tak sanggup menjadi beringin yang tegak di puncak bukit, jadilah saja belukan, tapi belukan terbaik yang tumbuh di tepi danau. Kalau kau tak sanggup menjadi belukan, jadilah saja rumput, tapi rumput yang memperkuat tanggul pinggiran jalan. Tidak semua jadi kapten, tentu harus ada awak kapalnya. Bukan besar kecilnya tugas yang menjadikan tinggi rendahnya nilai dirimu. Jadilah saja dirimu, sebaik-baiknya dirimu sendiri.
– Soe Hok Gie (1942-1969)
You Can’t Change the Bad Ways People See

No relationship is perfect, ever.
No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater…The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that’s the key. It’s like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.
– Sarah Dessen (This Lullaby)

So What Do You Do?
So what do you do when the person you love is the reason behind all your pain?
When things aren’t the same anymore and you constantly see yourself striving to maintain a perfect relationship?
When you no longer trust that person because their words continuously contradict their actions?
Have you ever felt this unbearable pain in your chest, but think to yourself that the pain is worth it because in the end you are still with that person?
Whenever they are out, you have a million of ideas just clustered in the back of your mind. You try your best to trust them, but for some reason you just can’t. You want them to do little sweet meaningful things, but yet they don’t. You find yourself so infatuated with this thing we call “love” that you isolate yourself from everyone and everything you once loved.
But in the end, is it really worth all the trouble and sacrifice?

Cinderella Believed in Dreams, But..
She [Cinderella] believed in dreams, all right, but she also believed in doing something about them. When Prince Charming didn’t come along, she went over to the palace and got him.

If You’re…
If you’re smart, people will call you a nerd. If you’re pretty, people will call you fake. If you just tend to stay home a lot, people will call you no life. No matter how perfect you think you are, there’s always someone out there …

Don’t let your heads drop. We’re Liverpool. You’re playing for Liverpool. Don’t forget that. You have to hold your heads high for the supporters. You have to do it for them.You can’t call yourselves Liverpool players if you have your heads down. If we create a few chances we have the possibility of getting back into this. Believe you can do it and you will. Give yourself the chance to be heroes.
