“No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world."
– Robin Williams
“Life is amazing. And then it's awful. And then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and awful it's ordinary and mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, and relax and exhale during the ordinary. That's just living heartbreaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life. And it's breathtakingly beautiful.”
– L.R. Knost
"And here you are living despite it all."
– Rupi Kaur
