The human race, it seems, is run faster than the speed of life.

A little smoke lost in the air, that was the life of a man.

Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,But young men think it is, and we were young.

Someone once told me love isn't perfect - or predictable.

If you would create something, you must be something.

There are two kinds of people,' she'd said. 'Those who coast through life like ducks in a row, following one after the other, and those who ride the waves.' Tears spilled down my cheeks, and my voice...

Because I'm selfish. I'm a coward. I'm the kind of girl who, when she might actually be of use, would run to stay alive and leave those who couldn't follow to suffer and die.

Life is like an onion; you peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep.

Life is a tapestry woven by the decisions we make.
