Fickleness

"Now we're in that sweet period where everyone agrees that our recent horrors should never be repeated," he says. "But collective thinking is usually short-lived. We're fickle, stupid beings with poor memories and a great gift for self-destruction. Although who knows? Maybe this will be it, Katniss."

- Plutarch, from the book "Mockingjay", the third in the Hunger Games Trilogy, written by Suzanne Collins

Just Say Yes

"I'm running out of ways to make you see
I want you to stay here beside me
I won't be ok and I won't pretend I am
So just tell me today and take my hand
Please take my hand

Just say yes, just say there's nothing holding you back
It's not a test, nor a trick of the mind
Only love.

It's so simple and you know it is
You know it is, yeah
We can't be to and fro like this
All our lives
You're the only way to me
The path is clear
What do I have to say to you
For God's sake, dear."

Permission

"When we give ourselves permission to be and feel everything we are -- monstrous, large, loud, brazen, occasionally ugly -- we age backward."

- From Elle Magazine 2011

Make You Feel My Love

"The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet.

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
To make you feel my love."

- Adele, "Make You Feel My Love"

Good Things

"Sunlight fall down on the fields
Sunlight fall down over me
Work all day, be all that I can be
Say, I can say words only simple
Say, I can say words only clear
But, oh, I can feel your heart is beating near.
Haunted love is all that I feel, when you're passing by
Haunted love is all that I see, it's there in your eyes
And I say no, no, no, don't pass me over
No, no, no, don't pass me by
See, I can see good things for you and I
Yeah, good things for you."

- The Bodeans, "Good Things"
