Answer 1

These r sum of my fav quotes...Enjoy!

In life, you have to be yourself; in order to be yourself, you have to be honest. And in order to be honest, you have to be true… and the only way you can do that… is to be you =]

Do anything and everything in life… because there’s gonna come a time when you think back when you were just a kid; When you’re biggest fear was that Santa Claus was gonna give you coal for Christmas. That you’d stick your tooth under our pillow, and t he tooth fairy would forget to leave you a 5 dollar bill…And that it wouldn't cross the Easter Bunny’s mind to leave you a basket of treats. Then you’ll see that you’re only fear you can’t seem get over is the fear that all those little childhood worries are just gonna be memories… and before you know it, you’d be the one saying, “ Wow, those were the days…”

Life passes you by so much faster when you’re living it for someone else. That’s why when you get stuck on one thing, you forget to cherish who really matters

Sometimes life just gets so hard… that there’s no way that things could ever clear up… Moments like this influence me to cry; but I don’t, because I know afterwards, once you’ll notice me…I’ll be just fine

"Sometimes, you gotta teach yourself how to get up from a hard fall... cuz if you call for someone's help... they just might push you back down.... "

Life isn’t about being fake; It’s not about laughing, when you really have to cry… Life isn’t about getting defined, and it’s most definitely not about defining others. Life is about showing your true colors. It’s about believing in yourself, start to finish. To cry and laugh at the same time; because there’s always a light end to a dark cave. To being your own person, not the person people want you to be… Because either way if they choose to like you, then they will. That’s what life is really about; all the good things, packed in one…

I rehearsed what I had to say to you 4 times last night, 7 times this morning, and 11 times this afternoon… Out of all those 22 times that I rehearsed, not one of them sounded good. Now, I’m standing right in front of you, gazing at your beautiful brown eyes; And even though I had to tell you only 3 words, I can’t quite remember what I practiced… Because the moment I looked at you, the words just [ vanished ] because all I could memorize is how much you meant to me…

Whatever life gives; take it... whatever you give life, can change everything..

People who show you they’re there for you, and who love you as you are.. Humans that cherish your company, and that laugh with you not at you. The known strangers that show you they care, and don’t let you regret a thing. Those are friends;; not the ones that tell you they love you, or that let you cry afterwards for your doubts;;

Love is only but a word, unless you fulfill it’s every meaning

Words that are never spoken
Individuals but both broken
Time that is wasted on all those tears
Having the courage to get rid of your fears
Overcoming the fact that you two might never be
Underestimating the power of love’s ability
Thoughts only countless but never the less
Years of regrets but never doubtless
Overtime people change routes
Undeniable but there’s no me without you
Take the letters from each beginning, and then you’ll get the truth… that life isn’t complete, when I’m w.i.t.h.o.u.t. y.o.u

Love is like a stick of gum. There’s so many flavors, but you’re really attracted to one. Then, a new flavor comes out, and you move on…It’s the same cycle… You put it in your mouth, chew it up, and spit it out. Because after a while, the new and fresh flavor, just starts wears off…

Laugh at stupid jokes. CRY. Get revenge. Apologize. Tell someone how much they really mean to you. Let someone know what they're missing. Laugh till your stomach hurts...live life, because tomorrow's not guaranteed to anyone.

Destiny isn’t held in the stars, it’s held in who we really are

I wish everyone in the world was a different color. Some shades would be similar, but there would only be two of the same color. The goal would be to match colors. Along the way there will be several people with similar shades, but none your true color. But when you find your matching color staring back at you, you'll know.

Don't base your decisions
on the advice of people
who don't have to deal with the results.

Always be a first-rate version
of yourself instead of second-rate
version of somebody else..

She changed her hair, painted her nails, and renewed her wardrobe; She changed herself because she wanted to be noticed by the jock that every girl fell for… But while she was doing so, she lost her [ number 1 ] secret admirer. The guy that thought she was perfect when she wore too much make-up, and when she dressed in ripped jeans. The guy that dreamt about being with her, while she dreamt of being with another…

Two people who broke up could never
be friends. But if they are, then they
were never in love or they still are.
[my ex and I still are…im not really sure which is the case lol]

Imagine a world without war. A world without AIDS. A world never poor, because everyone got paid. A world with clean air, so everyone could breathe. A world where leukemia didn’t still your hair, and where going blind allowed you to see. Imagine a world with endless dreams, dreamt will all eyes open. A world filled with sunshine beams, and words for the def spoken. Imagine a world in color, and the black and [white] will soon go, a world where we love each other, and where every star can glow.

I wish I could pause everything. I wish i could put my life on hold, just for a second. I wish I freeze my tears for a little while. I wish I could put emotions on layaway until I know how to handle them. There’s a difference between, “You can’t have everything in life,” and, “You can’t talk without taking action.” Believe me, I would grant all my wishes if I had the power. But I don’t. So the only other choice I have is to close my eyes, and runaway. Bend down to my knees and just pray. Be thankful for what I have this very day. And for everything I’ve been blessed to say.

Depend on no one because in life there’s a road you take. And one day, that road splits in two. At the end of each road is success, or failure. This isn’t a “guessing game,” it’s a, “You’re the only one that can choose your destiny.” By depending on no one, you make your own decision on you’re life. So choose wisely because either way, there’s no one to blame around you.

Yesterday was a day before today. Tomorrow is after today. Today is after yesterday, but before tomorrow. Yesterday is behind both tomorrow and today. Today is between yesterday and tomorrow. So tomorrow will be today after yesterday. Which ever way it goes… live for right now. Because those days aren’t guaranteed… not even to the richest man

**Flashback;
Turn back in time where you used to sit 4 hours watching the Rugrats. Where you wouldn’t ever leave your house without your nano baby, and when Blues Clues was actually challenging. Rewind back to the times when your favorite shows were Doug, Ren & Stimpy, Pinky and the Brain, AAAAAAAH Real Monsters!, and Rocko’s modern Life. When you watched re-runs of TGIF, Step by Step, Family Matters, Dinosaurs, and Boy Meets World. When you remember reading every series of Goosebumps, or in that case, remember listening to your mom read them as she grew bored and bored and as you grew more excited as to what would happen next. When bringing plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school was pretty much cool, and saying “NOT,” after every sentence was the way to talk. When every argument was settled by rock paper scissors, bubble gum bubble gum in a dish, or daddy had a donkey inky binky bonky. When cops and robbers was a daily activity, and when hide and go seek was put to pause only when it was snack time. The days when we used to actually obey our parents and when the radio was all we depended on for music. When you knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green ranger, were meant to be together. When you always wanted to send in a tape to America's Funniest Home Videos . . . but never taped anything funny…so you gave up. When the Magic School Bus made you think that school buses could fly, and when yo-yos made you popular. When getting married meant buying your crush a Ring Pop, and blabbing some random words behind the dumpster. When reading that little paper in the fortune cookie meant everything to you because it predicted your life. The days when you could tell furbie all your little secrets and expect him to talk back, and when Beanie Babies were the talk of the class. When you got creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" And when you knew the Macarena by heart. When you lied to your parents to bring you to McDonalds because you were starving, when really, you wanted to play in the play place. When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing, and when checking out drawing books and "Rainbow Fish" from the library was the cool thing to do.
Before we realized all this would eventually disappear we didn’t bother to think of how good things were.
Flashback…to the world we live in now.

**You think you know who your true friends are? wait till high school & see who's there for you when your ex boyfriend spreads rumors about you. Think you'll never do drugs? Wait till it's right there in front of you & all your "friends" are doing it. Think your tough? Wait till you say the wrong thing to the wrong person-see who backs down first. Think you're smart? Wait till you have an English paper, science project, history test & a 10 minute monologue due tomorrow cause you were absent for 1 day. Think you're cool? wait till you're the only one who doesn't make the sports team, see how cool you are then. you think you're popular? Wait till your parents can't afford the new Hollister jeans everyone has. Think you'll never fall in love? Wait till a guy looks deep in your eyes & says he loves you. Think you'll never get your heart broken? wait till that same guy who said he loved you is holding another girl behind your back. Think you won't have sex? Wait till the guy you think you love says it'll make you closer. Think "nothing's going to happen to you"? Yea wait till you're sitting in a jail cell, wondering how you got caught. Think that you're always going to be your own individual? Well wait till one morning when you look in the mirror & you're just like everybody else.

Hope you liked them...

*Much Love* **God Bless**

Answer 6

Well, if you want these to be serious, you can put them back together correctly. My Mom could never remember the punchline to a joke (although she'd try to tell the joke anyway), and she also accidentally mixed up sayings. Her two most famous were: "You made your bed, now eat it!" and "You buttered your bread, now lie in it!" Oh, and she would yell at us to get dressed because we shouldn't be "Stark raving naked!" As compared to "Stark raving mad," I guess.

I'm told there's an Indian (India Indian, not Amerind) saying "There's no one in the world as rude as a smoker, because the minute he lights up in a room he takes up all the space, no matter how big the room is."

Answer 7

How about "Birds ofa feather flock together" meaning people hang with people they have things in common with. Or "Lights on nobody home" Or "One brick short" meaning that the person does not have any sense. Or You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink" meaning you can try to help someone but that someone has to be willing to help themselves . How's that for starters?

Answer 8

It depends on what you are looking for but on of my favorites is; A good friend will bail you out of jail while a best friend will be sitting right beside you saying," That was freakin' awesome when can we do it again?"

Answer 9
