Passion

"The future will be better tomorrow." -Dan Quayle

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion." -Robin Williams as John Keating

Dead Poets Society

"Nature's first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf's a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay." -Robert Frost

I don't have an explanation of why I enjoy these.

Blood Of Olympus

"Keep moving. Don't get bogged down. Don't think about the bad stuff. Smile and joke even when you don't feel like it. Especially when you don't feel like it."

~Leo Valdez (Blood Of Olympus, Page 92)

See? I don't only quote Demi ;)

Moments & Actings

"This is only for the moment." My love told me this, and my favorite acting coach. They both have something in common, they're people I value the most talking about the one thing that matters to me the most.

In acting, moments are slight actions and lines before moving on to the next part. They're smaller parts within the larger scheme of things. When you're learning how to deal with a moment you learn to take your time and really feel, take in, observe the situation and be in that place. But moments don't last long. Acting is my life, it's something that helps me to cope with awkward situations and create who I am.

Moments are just a few smaller part of life. You might love the moment, hate the moment, bask in the moment, or even try to run from the moment, but it's all just for a moment. With this small piece of knowledge I've been able to deal with a lot of things because I recognized that things, whether good or bad, can't last forever because they're only moments.

Pay it forward

" but I guess it's hard for some people who are so used to the things the way they are even if they're bad, to change. Cuz I guess they just kinda give up and when they do everybody looses. It's hard , you can't plan it. You have to watch people more, sorta keep an eye on them. Cuz they can't always see what they need . It's like your big chance to fix something that's not like your bike. You can fix a person "

This is a quote from the little boy in the movie 'Pay It Forward' I think we can all learn a lesson from this little boy. Imagine living in a world where we all helped each other. No one would be alone
