“If you haven’t the strength to impose your own terms upon life, then you must accept the terms it offers you.”

“Always define WHAT you want to do with your life and WHAT you have to offer to the world, in terms of your favorite talents/gifts/skills-not in terms of a job-title.”

“If you live life on your own terms, people will definitely not understand you”

“Life was neither something you defended by hiding nor surrendered calmly on other people's terms, but something you lived bravely, out in the open, and that if you had to lose it, you should lose it on your own terms.”

“Whatever path you choose, whatever star you wish to pray, people will judge you...live your life on your own terms”

“There are times when it will go so wrong that you will barely be alive, and times when you realise that being barely alive, on your own terms, is better than living a bloated half-life on someone else's terms.”
