"that idea is perfect.  People who love, realize the act of love, but always imperfectly; what is perfect is the idea of love."

"(500) Days Of Summer... told almost entirely through Tom's perspective, was "actually very misunderstood," she says. "I can't tell you how many guys, and girls, are like, ‘You did him wrong!' What, she's a bitch because she didn't want to date that guy? So? Are we bitches because we have our own opinions? If that makes me a bitch, or that makes women bitches, then maybe we're all bitches."

Do It Anyway

People are often unreasonable, irrational and self-centered.
        Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
        Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.
        Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you.
        Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
        Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
        Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
        Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it may never be enough;
        Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
        It was never between you and them anyway. 

-Mother Teresa-

"Some days she tried.  Some days she gave up.  In large part because of the society in which she lived, when she died it all came to about the same.  Nothing much."

"women are not in the wrong when they decline to accept the rules laid down for them, since men make these rules without consulting them" 
michel de montaigne 

never take it seriously

if you never take it seriously, you never get hurt, you never get hurt, you always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends.

"we count the years we think we're smart

 but we're not 

we don't know anything 

so don't ask me where i'll go 

cause frankly i don't know 

and i don't give a shit  

why must we all make sense? 

oh i just won't make sense 

for once i'm just gonna live"
