Meaningful for Me

It'd be awesome to do this together! A lot of us have gone through things in our every day lives, that kinda shape us, grow us, and bring out the best in us - through pain and tears - and joy! Like you, I found it interesting to read what inspired people on a personal level, you know, and I know everyone takes away different inspirations from life.

 

I hoped we could share those little zappy quotes that mean something to you, that helped get you through or lifted your spirits. We all need encouragement and inspiration in today's world! No matter who we are... ❤️

When my teenage idol, Gerard way, came to Sydney to talk about his comics and solo music, I yelled out a question from the crowd about artwork.
I asked 'what If no one gets your art?'
And he responded 'who gives a fuck, if you like it, then you've already got 1 fan!'
It was awesome

Instead of seeing what they want you to see, you've got to open your brain to the possibilities.

AND

 

We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are.

 

I pretty much live by this quote!

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. - Theodore Roosevelt

Oh my gosh! There are way too many of J.K. Rowling's quotes to even mention. I don't even know where to start. But I think these one's will do.

 

"Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it."

 

"If you want to know what a man’s like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals."

 

"We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy."

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them. - Bruce Lee

 

I like a lot of Bruce Lee's quotes. I did martial arts aaages ago, and like positive inspiration.

@Ben-RO Going to check out that song for sure!

 

Quote time:

 

"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities." - Dr. Seuss

@Mermaidgirl6 there's a really good song named after this quote by Aphex Twin... well weird more than good. But that's mah Jam. 

 

Hmm I should think of another quote. 

 

“I think it's impossible to really understand somebody, what they want, what they believe, and not love them the way they love themselves.”
