“I can only please one person a day... Today is not your day & tomorrow isn't looking good either.”

“It's not about finding shelter from the storm, it's about learning to dance in the rain.”

“Life is like an ice-cream cone, when you think you have it licked it drips all over you.”

“The day of death is better than the day of birth, a live dog is better than a dead lion, and the grave is better than poverty.”

“I forgive you, but only because you said 'please.'"Smartass, I thought. Then I groaned at the instant chorus of "Please!" mixed with cries for release from Vlad's prisoners. No wonder he got so sick of the word."I'm only merciful to one person a day," he threw over his shoulder. "As the saying goes, today isn't your day and tomorrow doesn't look good, either.”

“If I’ve learned one thing on my journey so far, it’s to take all of who I am and embrace it… All of it, and CELEBRATE it. It is so awesome when you can come to a place of personal discovery and discover the deepest parts of you and what makes you come alive. I have also learned that failure is a part of life. I have failed more than I have ever succeeded, but I think that is how life works. The more you fail, the more you will succeed. You will eventually get to your destination, or how I like to call it – that awareness of what you came here to be; to share your gifts with the world. Trust me, this world needs you…The authentic YOU. What a beautiful transformation that can be.”

“Bodies lay in the sun. Bodies stood in the sun.”
