Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you’re living?
The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.
Who are you to judge the life I live? I know I’m not perfect — and I don’t live to be — but before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean!
Love the life you live. Live the life you love.
Don’t gain the world and lose your soul. Wisdom is better than silver or gold.
If she’s amazing, she won’t be easy. If she’s easy, she won’t be amazing. If she’s worth it, you won’t give up. If you give up, you’re not worthy.
You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice.
The day you stop racing, is the day you win the race.
Overcome the devils with a thing called Love.
