A cruel word may wreck a life,
A timely word may lessen stress,
A loving word may heal and bless.

Time will be crueller to me than to my furniture.
Angel, ange… help me!
You must help yourself this time. Pray. But not to me.

To coerce God is to coerce reality and therefore answer your own prayers.

" In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame it’s inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law, to pursue natural justice. This is not vengeance, revenge is not a valid motive, it’s an emotional response. No, not vengeance….punishment." that was said by frank castle, the main character from the 2004 film " the punisher".
it is a quote that i live by.
“ It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died, rather we should thank god that such men lived.” - George S Patton-
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” - Edmund Burke -
No one could make a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little. - Edmund Burke -

i'm a hopeless romantic and so this quote incredibly a lot defines genuine love: "Love is affected person, love is type. it incredibly is not any longer jealous, (love) isn't pompous, it incredibly is not any longer inflated, it incredibly is not any longer rude, it would not seek for its very own hobbies, it incredibly is not any longer speedy-tempered, it would not brood over injury, it would not rejoice over wrongdoing yet rejoices with the reality. It bears all issues, believes all issues, hopes all issues, endures all issues. Love on no account ENDS." (a million Corinthians 13:4-8)
