“I've learned, that not all worth is measured by price. I've found so many gems that didn't cost me much!”

“I've learned through writing that if something made me feel deeply or anything at all, it was worth it.”

“The worth of things can't be measured by what they cost but by what the cost you to get it, that if anything costs you your faith or your family, then the price is too high, and that there are some things that will never wear out.”

“Many times I've lied, many times I've listened, many times I've wondered how much there is to know.”

“Frugality, I've learned, has its own cost, one that sometimes lasts forever.”

“My ma told me that there isn't anything in this life worth having that comes easy. She told me that every road I walk down's gonna have a price. But what she didn't tell me and what I learned since I've been here is that if you don't choose the road you're gonna walk, sooner or later someone else'll do that choosing for you.”
