It is so worth it to love and be hurt... There's nothing greater than the feeling of being loved.
--Ryan
I learned that dreams are never destroyed by circumstances; dreams are born in the heart and mind, and only there can they ever die. Because while the difficult takes time, the impossible just takes a little longer.
If you were going to die today and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
--Stephen Levine
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
--Charles Kingsley (1819 – 1875)
Consider it pure joy, my brothers whenever you face trials of many
kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops
perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature
and complete, not lacking anything.
One of the secrets of success is to refuse to let temporary setbacks defeat us
James 1:2-3
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched... but are felt in the heart.
The turning point in the process of growing up is when you dicover the core strength within you that survives all hurt
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
If I know what love is, it is because of you
You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm.
Do not look back in anger, or forward in fear, but around in awareness.
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
The heart has eyes which the brain knows nothing of.
It is healthier to see the good points of others than to analyze our own bad ones.
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
In the middle of every difficulty lies oppurtunity.
Words are a form of action, capable of influencing change.
A true friend is one who is there for you, when he'd rather be anywhere else.
--Len Wein
Maturity begins to grow when you can sense your concern for others outweighing the concern for yourself.
--John MacNoughton
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtfull, committed people can change the world, indeed it's the only thing that ever has.
Hey guys! Who's the chick with the short hair? I don't know, I don't know! Lets go talk to her!
--Squad 5-0 AND MxPx
The world has no room for cowards. We must all be ready
to toil, to suffer, to die.
And yours is not less noble because no drum beats before
you when you go out into your daily battlefields.
And no crowds shout about your coming when you return
from your daily victory or defeat.
--Robert Louis Stevenson
Join the Rebellion, rebel against the system
--The Insyderz
In this life they can sin w/o feeling shame. That's a fallacy because we've got problems galore, the Holy Spirit brings us guilt, more & more. A never ending battle to save souls for God. If you see a perfect person they're a facade. I am by no means better than you.
--Dogwood
Drugs are for losers
--Lots of people (including me)
Abortion is murder
--Again, lots of people!
"Freaks" are cool!
--ME!
Here's a super long one! Sorry, but it's such an awesome quote/sequence that I had to put it in here, I might even comment on it on a future date!
Here's a key as to who is speaking in this quote! Blue= Iceman, brown= Bastion,
green= Sentinels, gold= SHIELD soldiers, and purple= Marrow, well here goes nothing!
Got a second? Let me give you an example.
When my father was nearly killed, I hated
you and Graydon Creed and everything you and
your kind stood for. There were days
-- when he was learning to stand again, to
walk on his own, to feed himself --
when all I could think of was him getting
better so that I'd have the freedom to track you down
and kill every last one of you. I wanted
Zealots to suffer for what you believed
in -- the same way you made one defenseless
old man suffer for acting on his beliefs. But every day
I spent with my dad--every day I saw him
struggle with even the simplest things.... it
became more obvious to me that his fight to
regain control over his life-- is the same
fight each and everyone of us fight every
day of our lives. I started to realize how
much more important life is -- love is --
than the hate that I had almost allowed to
consume me. I realized I had to let that hate
go -- before I let it destroy me as
violently as any sentinel was programmed
to. You claim you love humanity, Bastion
-- how you'll do anything to preserve it -- but
look around you, everything you've done in the
name of that humanity -- the lives you've
threatened and ruined -- and then tell us
again how much your sacred humanity means
to you. I don't know what you were before the
person you are now. I only that you've become
everything you claim to hate. So kill
me if you have to, Bastion... If that's what it
takes to achieve your goals. But you should know that
every mutant you kill -- Every life you
take -- Every family you shatter -- Takes you
one step farther away from that same humanity
you're so desperate and determined to defend.

die fighting. Are you?
Prime Unit:
Sentinel Battalions?
Awaiting orders
On my command... Stand down.
Why don't you want to kill him now?
Because, Marrow. Because in the end... that
may be all that separates people like him... from people
like us.
