“When life kicks your ass, kick back.”

“Armed with my positive attitude and inherent stubborn nature, I keep my mind focused and my life moving forward. I stop to rest, pout and even cry sometimes, but always, I get back up. Life is giving me this challenge and I will plow through it, out of breath with my heart racing if I have to.”

“I just remember that everything looked the same-all style and no substance ”

“When life kicks me, I kick it back.”

“When I wake up, I'm going to kick your ass.”

“I hoisted myself onto my elbows. "Yeah, well, if I ever come back as a Grigori, then I'll kick your ass.""You'll come back, and you'll be a Grigori." He spoke with such certainty it made me smile. "I doubt very greatly, however, that you'll kick my ass. But me and my ass will enjoy your efforts.”

“When you lose your face..., it is like dropping your necklace down a well. The only way you can get it back is to fall in after it.”
