“So, Mystery Lady? What's it going to be? You're going to spend your short little life playing by their rules, or are you going to take your chance?”

“The Imagi-Nation is a little country in your head. When you're young, you go there to play. When you get older, you go there to worry.”

“I have never left you. And I never told you you couldn't go outside. Take your children and go outside and play and shop. Resume your life. What are you afraid of?”

“You can't spend your whole life criticizing something and then, when you have the chance to do it better, refuse to go near it.”

“You're going to spend more time with yourself than with anyone else in your life. You want to spend that whole time fighting who you are?”

“My mother raised me to be bold. If I do not go, I will spend the rest of my life wondering what might have happened if I had.""If you do go, the rest of your life may be too short for wondering. - Asha & Rodrick”
