“I used to feel so alone in the city. All those gazillions of people and then me, on the outside. Because how do you meet a new person? I was very stumped by this for many years. And then I realized, you just say “Hi.” They may ignore you. Or you may marry them. And that possibility is worth that one word.” -Augusten Burroughs

“We’re only humans! We cannot impress everyone. People have the right to make mistakes, and the responsibility to learn from them.” -Bethan

“When I saw you, I fell in love. And you smiled because you knew.” -William Shakespeare

“Go home, look yourself in the mirror and say. “I’m beautiful.” And even if you feel like it’s not there, it is. As cheesy as that sounds. It’s inside of you. You just got to let it out. Stop wanting to be what you see in those magazines. Stop wishing to be that model on the runway. Stop watching TV and wanting to be that actress. Stop trying to be what society wants to shove down your throat. Tonight I want you to forget everything. Forget all of your insecurities. I want you to reject anyone or anything that’s ever made you feel like you don’t belong, or you don’t fit in, or like you’re not good enough, or pretty enough, or thin enough, or can’t make enough money, or sing well enough, or get an A on that test, or dance well enough, or write a song well enough, or you’ll never fill a stadium. You’ll never win a Grammy. You’ll never have a number one record. You just remember that you’re a god damn superstar! and you were born this way!” - Kendall Schmidt

“Sometimes, it’s hard to say no when you really mean yes, it’s hard to close your eyes when you really want to see, it’s hard to forget when you really can’t, and the hardest is to go when you really want to stay.” -Unknown

“Sometimes we want to express our love to someone in some way, or express our heartbreak in some way. The truth is that even if you explain it perfectly, your explanation is never complete.” -Me

“Life isn’t about how to survive the storm, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.” -Taylor Swift

“The difference between a good song and a great song is a good song is one that you know, you’ll put on in your car or you’ll dance to it. But I think a great song you’ll cry to it, or you get chills. I think a great song says how you feel better than you could.” - Taylor Swift

“Life isn’t about keeping score. It’s not about how many people call you and it’s not about who you’ve dated, are dating, or haven’t dated at all. It isn’t about who you’ve kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It’s not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it’s not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn’t about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that. But life is about who you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness, and compassion. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. Most of all, it is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise. These choices are what life’s about.” -Kasey

“Sometimes it’s just easier to stand alone instead of battling a war.” -Me

“When I think about life and society, I always think of the possibilities of something bad happening. But when I think about you, it gives me a little hope that everything will be okay.” -Me

“If you wanna have fun, then do something crazy.”- Justin

“No matter how you look, you are beautiful in every way. Maybe you don’t look exactly like a celebrity like Selena Gomez or Victoria Justice or whatever, but who cares? You are your own person. Most of us want to be someone we’re not, even me, but we just have to accept ourselves for who we are. You are one of a kind, and you should be proud of that. And honestly, why care about looks at all? If someone doesn’t accept you the way you are, then don’t give all your attention to them. Only give your attention to the people that matter, because the people that matter wouldn’t make you change yourself and just accept you the way you are. If the people that matter can accept you, why can’t you accept yourself? If you think that you’re ugly because of society’s idiotic rules, then stop thinking that. Society is the ugly one. Stop paying attention to the negative things about yourself, because they don’t exist. Everyone has flaws, and our flaws makes us who we are, and that’s what makes us have our own kind of perfection. Go look in the mirror and smile at yourself. No one can be exactly like you, so be proud that you’re uniqueness! My point is that whatever someone may say, or whatever happens, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. Never forget that.” -Me

“Life is about taking chances, and love is fearless.” -Me

“Everyone has flaws, but there are just people who look beyond them, like they don’t even exist. And that’s what makes someone perfect to a person.” -Me

“Sometimes you have to fight for the things that are worth fighting for.” -The Secret World of Arrietty

“It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation. ” -Brandon

“Distance is a test of love. Many will fail, for those who can’t withstand it. But for the one’s who can, there is only one answer: True Love.”

“It really hurts just to leave your accomplishment when you’ve just made it.” -Me

“If you live your life depending on others to give you happiness, then your life is just going to keep following disappointments. If you want something good to happen, you’ll have to make it happen yourself.” -Me

“What makes me unique is the same reason James Berry is unique; I am my own person. I am a one of a kind person and no one can be exactly like me. Someone can do the same things that I do, talk the way I do, or look the way I do, but they will always have their own version of me depending on their particular perspective of how I am or the kind of person they view me as, but their version of me will never be like who I am originally no matter how hard anyone tries to make it seem this way.” -Me

“Everything takes time. It doesn’t come quickly, and it definitely doesn’t come easy.” -Me

“Strength can’t come to you instantly. You have to go through many challenges and learn piece by piece each lesson that makes you stronger.” -Me

“Problems are meant for solving, not for comparing with others.” -Me
