“It’s okay to show up at a guy’s house with a dozen roses and declare your undying affection. It’s okay to have too much to drink and call your ex twenty times and then to be mortally embarrassed when you realize your number must have shown up on his caller I.D. It’s okay, because making a fool of yourself for love is ultimately about you, how much you have to give and the distance you will travel to keep your heart wide open when everything around you makes you feel like slamming it shut and soldering it closed.” GivingFeelsHeartShowsGuyHouseRealizingLove IsNumbersToo MuchFoolDrinkOkayTwentiesDistanceRoseAffectionWideDozenEmbarrassedExesYour ExMaking A Fool Of Yourself Author:Veronica Chambers
“We set up one rule in our house, which is, 'Guests of guests cannot bring guests.' That rule was required because that happened one weekend, and we finally said, 'Okay, you know what? That's a little too much.'” KnowsLittlesSaidHouseToo MuchHappenedOkayWeekendGuests Author:Elizabeth Gilbert
“I don't eat food, I Thom Yorke it. What's the difference? When normal people "eat" food, they first chew it with their "teeth" until it's small enough to go through their "esophagus" and then be broken down in their "stomach" and absorbed. When I Thom Yorke food, I chew it with my Thom Yorkes until it's small enough to go through my Yorke tube. It's then broken down in my Thomach, where if I eat too much sweets, I get a mean Thommy ache! But it's okay because Jonny's usually there to rub the pain out.” PeopleIfsFirstsMeanEnoughPainDifferencesToo MuchSweetBrokenNormalOkayTeethStomachAcheTubesBroken Down Author:Thom Yorke
“Growing up in a place that has winter, you learn to avoid self-pity. Winter is not a personal experience, everybody else is just as cold as you, so you shouldn't complain about it too much. You learn this as a kid, coming home crying from the cold, and Mother looks down and says, 'It's only a little frostbite. You're okay.' And thus you learn to be okay. What's done is done. Get over it. Drink your coffee. It's not the best you'll ever get but it's good enough.” LooksLittlesSelfDoneEnoughHomeKidsMotherGrowing UpToo MuchGrowingCryColdDrinkOkayDown AndWinterComplainingCoffeePityOver ItComing HomeGood EnoughGet OverSelf PityPersonal Experiences Author:Garrison Keillor
“I find that kid actors are great reminders of the simplicity of acting. As you get older, you can sometimes complicate things a little more. You can become too aware of, 'Okay, this is the scene emotionally. This is where we need to be. We've got the climax coming up.' You can start to analyze it too much.” NeedsLittlesSometimesKidsActorsActingToo MuchSceneOkaySimplicityRemindersClimax Author:Hugh Jackman

“When I’m running, there’s always this split second when the pain is ripping through me and I can hardly breathe and all I see is color and blur—and in that split second, right as the pain crests, and becomes too much, and there’s a whiteness going through me, I see something to my left, a flicker of color […]—and I know then, too, that if I only turn my head he’ll be there, laughing, watching me, and holding out his arms. I don’t ever turn my head to look, of course. But one day I will. One day I will, and he’ll be back, and everything will be okay. And until then: I run.” IfsKnowsLooksI CanRunningPainTurnsCoursesLeftLaughingToo MuchColorArmsOne DayOkayBreatheSplitsBlurWhitenessFlicker Author:Lauren Oliver
