History is just a way of keeping score, but it doesn't have to be who we are.

Depression isn't a war you win. It's a battle you fight every day. You never stop, never get to rest. It's one bloody fray after another.

I saw the world from the stars' point of view, and it looked unbearably lonely.

We remember the past, live in the present, and write the future.

Dreams are hopeful because they exist as pure possibility. Unlike memories, which are fossils, long dead and buried deep.

We're not words, Henry, we're people.Words are how others define us, but we can define ourselves any way we choose.

That's the problem with memories: you can visit them, but you can't live in them.

Because you can only die once but you can suffer forever.

I was diamond on the outside, and I would not break.Inside, though, I was already broken.

But that's the difference between people and stars. A star's light still shines even if there's no one to see it, but without someone to remember Jesse, his light will disappear.

How ugly we must look to them, spilling light into every dark corner to push back the shadows, blinding ourselves to the true beauty of emptiness.

A beautiful rose with an ugly soul wilts quickly.

Confident is a spirit of faith

The word 'religion' has acquired a very bad name among those who really love truth, justice, charity. It also exhales the musty odor of sanctimony and falsehood.

My most prized possession was my library card from the Oakland Public Library.

I like the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas more than the actual one.

I'm a pretty average guy and want to keep a low profile. I don't want the world necessarily to know about me.

They best pass over the world who trip over it quickly; for it is but a bog. If we stop, we sink.

Talk is cheep. Love is priceless.

People always want to talk about who I was, but I've always been singing, always been experimenting with pop music.

Being seen as the best striker in Europe doesn't spur me on-it's helping my team to success. That's my only aim. I'm not a machine.
