“Actually, you can be bad at something...but if you love doing it, that will be enough. - August Boatwright”

“Lily Owens: If your favorite color is blue, why did you paint the house pink? August Boatwright: [chuckles] That was May's doing. When we went to the paint shop, she latched on to a color called, "Caribbean Pink." She said it made her feel like dancing a Spanish Flamenco. I personally thought it was the tackiest color I had ever seen, but I figured if it could lift May's heart, it was good enough to live in. Lily Owens: That was awfully nice of you. August Boatwright: Well, I don't know. Some things in life, like the color of a house, don't really matter. But lifting someone's heart? Now, that matters.”

“If you want something badly enough, do not give up!”

“If you want something to be true badly enough, you can rewrite it that way, in your head. You can even start to believe it.”

“you need power only to do something harmful.otherwise love is enough,compassion is enough.”
