“You are so in over your head that even a life raft can't keep you afloat.”
“You can't keep the birds of sadness from flying over your head, but you can keep them from nesting in your hair.”
“There is only room in the lifeboat of your life for one, and you always choose yourself, and turn your parents into whatever it takes to keep you afloat.”
“When life's got you down, keep your head up... you can't see the ground anyway”
“If you keep looking at your feet you will bump your head. If you keep your eyes to the horizon you will eventually learn to not trip over.”
“It isn't good to hold on too hard to the past. You can't spend your whole life looking back. Not even when you can't see what lies ahead. All you can do is keep on keeping on, and try to believe that tomorrow will be what it should be—even if it isn't what you expected.”
