“Teenagers all think their life is a movie. If you break up with someone or you have a fight, you walk around with movie scores playing in your head. You sort of see yourself suffering as you're suffering. There's a lot of melodrama attached to the real events of your life.” IfsThinkingRealLife IsSufferingFightingWalksBreakEventsTeenagerScoreMelodrama Author:Kenneth Lonergan
“Sometimes having no script, having no idea what is going to happen next, having no map, might be the way to go. Because life just happens, and when it does, how you handle it will teach you more about who you are than any class or test ever can. The best preparation for the rest of your life is, maybe, no preparation at all. Dive right in. Make mistakes. Break a few rules. Wing it.” WayDoeIdeasSometimesMightHappensLife IsNextMistakeClassTeachBreakTestsWho You AreWingsScriptsHandlePreparationNo IdeaMaking MistakesMapsRest Of Your Life Book:From What I Remember Source: From What I Remember
“Our business in life is not to get ahead of others but to get ahead of ourselves; to break our own records; to outstrip our yesterdays by our todays; to bear our trials more beautifully than we ever dreamed we could; to give as we never have given; to do our work with more force and a finer finish than ever. This is the true idea: to get ahead of ourselves.” GivingIdeasTodayLife IsGivenForceBreakRecordsBearsYesterdayTrialsGet Ahead Author:Carl Holmes

“Things change when you learn to loosen your grip. I think one way and the future is desperate. I think another way everything is in sight. Trees bend so branches don't have to break. We mend the wounds of our last mistake... I live one way holding onto the fence post. I live another way sliding off into space. Each life is loosely assembled... Birds swim, fish do fly. Proud man begins to cry. Birds swim, fish do fly.
