“You’re enough.”

“It’s okay to rest.”

“You’re safe, now.”

“You’re not a burden.”

“It’s okay to be scared.”

“You’re doing your best.”

“Don’t listen to the doubt.”

“It’s not better to be alone.”

“They can’t hurt you anymore.”

“It’s okay to cry if you need to.”

“You do not deserve to be hurt.”

“You don’t need to forgive them.”

“It’s okay if your best isn’t perfect.”

“It’s okay to take time for yourself.”

“You don’t have to please everyone.”

“You were just a kid. It wasn’t your fault.”

“You’re not a bad person for speaking up.”

“You don’t have to push yourself so hard.”

“Healing takes time. There’s no time-limit.”

“You’re surrounded by people who love you.”

“You don’t have to prove yourself to anyone.”

“You don’t have to do everything by yourself.”

“It’s not selfish to ask for help when you need it.”

“You deserve to smile, and laugh, and be happy.”

“You don’t have to apologize for taking up space.”

“You don’t need to justify your existence to anyone.”

“You’re not stupid for not understanding something.”

“Everything might not be perfect, but it will be better.”

“You can miss someone and still realize they hurt you.”

“You’ve come so far, so take a second and appreciate that.”

“Not everyone is out there to break you down and hurt you.”

“What was done to you was not your fault. It never, ever was.”

“You don’t need to accept apologies from people who don’t mean them.”

“You’re allowed to tell people. If they didn’t want people to know, they shouldn’t have done it.”

“They didn’t love you. It hurts to recognize that. But, it means you can move on, and find someone who does.”

“It’s a long story.”

“Well, I’ve seen a lot.”

“Do you think I’m afraid of death?“

“Sorry to have ruined your evening.”

“Silence isn’t a gift that I was given.“

“I highly recommend that you don’t get bit.“

“It’s a fine line between pleasure and pain.“

“It’s happened, hasn’t it? I’ve become boring.“

“If your game is death, go where the action is.”

“It may come as a surprise, but I still fear death.“

“Lends itself to some slightly awkward situations…”

“Just imagine all the things you could do with eternity.“

“But, the truth is that everyone has the capacity to kill.”

“Because, beyond all else, I have lots and lots of time.”

“Don’t worry. I’m the least judgmental person you’ll ever meet.“

“The real question is, how do you live with yourself afterwards?“

“There’s always something, so long as you know what to look for.“

“Don’t worry. We’ll find away out of this. We’ve got eternity together.“

“In my long life, I’ve experienced many ends, but only one beginning.“

“The best you can hope for is that over time, the wound begins to heal.“

“It might sound a bit implausible. In fact, you probably won’t believe me.“

“Try watching as the people you love most in this world go off to another.“

“I assure you, I look the same everyday. Although, that still may be ‘like crap’.“

“If we root ourselves too deeply in the past, we’ll miss what’s right in front of us.”

“I think it’s safe to say I’ve yet to figure out what the point of life is. Mine, anyway.“

“And, though you might try to bargain with death, bear no delusions. It will find you.“

“Only then would you know what I do… that eternity is not really a blessing, but a curse.“

“No matter how careful we are, there is simply no way to go through this life unscathed.“

“What kills you is not what causes your heart to stop beating. It’s what prevents you from living.“

“But, no matter how strong we are, no matter how hard we fight… the scars always stay with us.”

“History has a way of repeating itself. It’s just most people don’t live long enough to see it happen.“

“I’ve seen a lot of death, a lot of pain, a lot of suffering. But, I’ve also seen a lot of life…a lot of beauty, a lot of wonder.”

“I can say, with scientific certainty, that what keeps us alive, more important than blood, or oxygen, or even love… is hope.“

“But, what a body can’t tell you is  ‘ w h y ‘. And, for those left behind, that seems to be the only question that really matters.“

“I’ve lived a full life, been madly in love. I’ve had my heart broken. I’ve fought in wars and seen more than my fair share of death.”
