"living life fully, fiercely, devotedly, makes you much more able to accept other people who are doing the same. all were trying to do is to get from birth to death. and you cant fail. even if you only live five minutes, you have succeeded. and everybodys out there trying to do the same thing. some dont know it, and they think they have to step on your neck to survive. its unfortunate for them. if i ever see someone trying to do that, i try and encourage the person who is standing underneath to move away, so that that ill-infomed person can gain some understanding. and i certainly move away. i am not helping anybody if i allow them to use or abuse me"
-Maya Angelou

thats all

"i only regret not being ablet to confide to you all that i still bear undeveloped within me" -Simone Weil
