It's what life is. It's a series of rooms and who we get stuck in those rooms with adds up to what our lives are.

"There are times in life when you have to crawl, loose your grip, trip and fall. When you can't lean on no one else that's when you find yourself. I've been around and i've noticed that walking is easy when the road is flat. Those dang old hills get you every time. The good lord gave us mountains so we could learn how to climb." - Mountains by Lonestar

"I've heard it's said that people come into our lives for a reason bringing something we must learn. And we are led to those who help us most to grow if we let them and help them in return. Well i don't know if i believe thats true but i know i'm who i am today because i knew you." - For Good from Wicked

" You're only young once, so be bad, break the rules,get caught… & make it count."

"I'm not afraid to fall; it means I climbed too high. Either way it shows at least I tried."

"Be who you want to be, not what others want to see."

"True strength is being able to hold it all together, when everyone else is expecting you to fall apart."

"Don't take life too seriously. No one comes out alive anyway"

I don't know who said this but my friend used it for his senior quote.

and I think this one is just funny

"I'm sure there's more to life than being really really good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is."
I think it's from Zoolander *another senior quote*

Edit: adding another one

my favorite quotes are written on the mirror in my bedroom.
this is the newest one i've added:

"those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life."

my friend sent me that in a text the other day, and it hit me like a truck. he said it reminded him of me. :)

another favorite is:
"id rather be a could be if i cannot be an are, because a could be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. id rather be a has been than a might have been by far, because a might have been has never been, but a has been was once an are. "

"I am a question to the world
Not an answer to be heard
Or a moment that's held in your arms

And what do you think you'd ever say
I won't listen anyway
You don't know me, and I'll never be what you want,
Me to be"
- "I'm Still Here" (song)

"Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can take the breath from your lips
Live your life with words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwitten"

"Life aint always beautiful
Sometimes it's just plain hard
Life can knock you down, it can break your heart

Life aint always beautiful
You think you're on your way
And it's just a dead end road at the end of the day

But the struggles make you stronger
And the changes make you wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time

CHORUS
No, life aint always beautiful
Tears will fall sometimes
Life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride

Life aint always beautiful
Some days I miss your smile
I get tired of walkin all these lonely miles

And I wish for just one minute
I could see your pretty face
Guess I can dream, but life don’t work that way

But the struggles make me stronger
And the changes make me wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time

No, life aint always beautiful
But i know i'll be fine
Hey, life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride
What a beautiful ride"

Optimist people are here to keep the pessimistic people from wallowing in misery. Pessimistic people are here to remind the optimistic of a little fact called reality.

be original, be yourself. because the last time someone tried to make everyone the same, eleven million people died.

The only truly painful goodbyes are the ones that are never said and never explained.

in the end, it doesnt matter how many friends you had, all that really matters is how many stayed with you.

That's really deep, Shelby.

Wasn't Andy Warhol the guy who made Pop Art popular?

andy warhol was a big part of the pop art movement. he always said that his art was nothign but skin deep, like pop culture. i like to think he was being facetious, but you can never really tell with artists.

"i want a heart...hearts will never be practical until they are made unbreakable...but i still want one."

"if worst comes to worst, you can say it will only get better."

"good artists steal, bad artists copy."

"artists survive, because the rest of us feed off of them. we need them. they show us how terribly boring we are, and we crave that. we crave change. the artist doesn't make much money, they don't get much attention, but they will never be out of a job. and thats because we need them to see how bland our own lives really are. we love artists, we envy artists. all the while, artists wish they were just normal people. the grass is always greener, i suppose."

An optimist laughs to forget. A pessimist forgets to laugh

When one door closes another one opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.

"We all suffer. Some people undergo greater fights then others. Life may seem unfair that some people have an easier fight while others have to fight till there sore. But we can't let that get to us. All problems can be overcome as long as you are persistent in trying. Don't give up. Don't give in. Don't think you will not win. Keep strong and you will survive. And when we finally overcome these barriers, we will look back and see how the fight affected us and we realize, it has changed us. It has made us better people. There was some good that comes out of so much bad. There was a hidden reason behind it all." - a piece of advice one of my closest friends once gave me.

“It’s hard to watch things change when all you want is for them to stay the same. It’s funny but stupid how you want everything and nothing at the same time. It’s crazy when you want to let go, but you keep holding on, and when you want to move on but you're stuck right where you started. When feelings come and go and you can't decide what you want. When you have so many things to say but you don't know where to start. When you want them in your life so bad, but all you can do is push them farther and farther away. It’s so hard to think back to how things used to be and look at it now and realize that things are different and they may never be the same.
