“You've got to be willing to stay committed to someone over the long run, and sometimes it doesn't work out.

“I've learned through the years how to base my identity and sense of self-worth on myself and not others. I've learned the most critical tool of all: self-love. Now, if it doesn't work out with someone, sure, I'll be hurt. But I'll be bruised, not broken. And I may lose my balance, but I won't be wiped off my feet.” HurtIdentityBrokenBalanceWork OutSense Of Self Author:Amy Chan
“We live in a world where art is always looked upon as the perfect medium. We live in a society where we can alter our body parts, we can act in the most perfect or right way. A lot of that is dangerous because, especially in the world of art, the chief enemy of creativity is being safe. If you're safe, you can't fall and hurt yourself. The older you are, the further down the crash is going to be. But if it works out, the higher the high.” WorldArtFallHurtPerfectEnemyCreativityDangerousArt IsWork OutCrash Author:Nicolas Winding Refn
