He knew he should have counted. It was the rule to count to ten in his head before he opened his mouth. It was the rule to count to ten if he wanted to smash a man in the face for saying something he didn't like. It was the rule to count to ten if instinct wasn't needed, but common sense was. ~Melina Marchetta

The stars looked like they were close together, when really they were millions of miles apart. In the end, maybe love just meant longing for something impossibly bright and forever out of reach. ~Leigh Bardugo

Even if I had expected it, even if I had known what I was going to do with my life, it would have knocked the wind out of me.

So what can you do to stop yourself from tilting and falling all over again? ~Amy Tan

The trauma said. Don't write these poems. Nobody wants to hear you cry about the grief inside your bones. ~Andrea Gibson
#quotes #andrea-gibson #sorrow

What exists is a godly existence, a divine existence. God not as a person but as a presence certainly exists. But to understand that presence, you have to understand your own inner presence first, because it is from there that you can take off, it is from there that you can have the first glimpse of what godliness is. If you have not known yourself you will never know God. ~Rajneesh
