::These are a few of my favorite things::

Some of my favorite quotes I thought I'd share!

"I once heard that love is friendship on fire."

"Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."
-Carrie "Sex and the City"

"One must not lose desires. They are mighty stimulants to creativeness, to love, and to long life."
-Alexander A. Bogomoletz

"Sometimes the measure of friendship isn't your ability to not harm but your capacity to forgive the things done to you and ask forgiveness for your own mistakes."
-Randy K. Milholland

"Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why."
-Eddie Cantor

"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results."
-ANON

"A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous."
-INGRID BERGMAN

"The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them."
-Thomas Merton

" Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you."
-Wayne Dyer

"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity".

"Give in to love, or live in fear."
- Mimi Marquez, "Another Day", Rent

"Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, it's what you are expected to give -- which is everything."
--Anon
