Joseph Joubert quote #44



Imagination is the eye of the soul. – Joseph Joubert 

Imagination, a man would think that imagination disappears as the time pass on, fades and becomes more unreal then it was before, by understanding reality and possibility, but I think that’s the wrong thinking.

Imaginary world is the world we want to see, formatted per our requirements, we are his makers and we rule it. Wouldn’t it be nice, that right can’t be taken away from man, the right to see the world as a game, as something that lasts, never fades. So nice. I will never understand what prevents old people to imagine, can’t they afford to virtualize their imagination, to make it for their own soul? I will never stop to live in my own world, the world where everything is possible and the world where I rule. WELCOME!

Louisa May Alcott quote #43



Love is a great beautifier. – Louisa May Alcott

Love doesn’t choose age, love is special mental and physical condition and you feel like you can do something you couldn’t before, you can put through every problem, persevere in something.

Like I said, love doesn’t choose age, it’s blind, I think that a man mustn’t be without loved one when he becomes old, he simply can’t, because what is the reason of living if he doesn’t live for anybody, his life is a void, the soul and heart are empty and days are hard and slow? Why would someone do that if love changes everything? Black and cloudy days become nice and sunny, bad thoughts become good and boring and monotonous life becomes exciting and unique and all that is, imagine, FREE !

Joseph Conrad quote #42

Facing it, always facing it, that's the way to get through. Face it. - Joseph Conrad

We all have problems, smaller or bigger. Life without problems ins't life. Some of them we have to face alone. Our own problems. If we pretend they don't exist and we just delay them it won't get any better. It will just become worse. Problems won't just disappear. We have to get through it, to face it. It doesn't matter if we solve them alone or with friends or family. What matter is that it has to be solved. One way or another. Also, we shouldn't share our problems with everybody. There are too many evil people who will abuse it and that will turn bad for us. Ask for a help somebody you're sure about. Face it and solve it!

Euripidies quote #41

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness. - Euripidies

Friends, we all have some but are they real? Are they with us because of the benefits? Or are they maybe real, loyal and faithful? Incorruptible? I can boast of a true friend although I had a couple of failures, yeah of course everyone has it, I'm talking about failed friendships. I hate parents forced friendship that force us to hang out with somebody we don't want. Of course, that is the period of up to eight-nine years but still, we want to find a friend with same opinion but still the one different. Friendship can never be forced, and if it is, it breaks in front of the first pediments because "A friend in need is a friend indeed."

Socrates quote #40

The only true of wisdom is in knowing you know nothing. - Socrates

All of the famous philosophers since the time of the Greeks, the ones who studied this area first and this recent, revolutionary, all of them had the same wish from the very start, to know more. Because of that, every one of them tried to explain unexplainable, to prove unprovable, to distinguish themselves, simply to push the boundaries. By the time they understand the essence, and that essence is the more you know, the more you don't know. Studying inaccessible spaces you realise how much they are inaccessible and great, you gain awareness of the limitations of the man and nature, of balance and essence of life. But, they say "By reading the unwritten books we forget written ones" which is absolutely true. I'm not saying you shouldn't strive for finding out something new but I also know that no mortal can know everything, from protons, electrons and neutrons to the great secrets of universe.

Sam Levenson quote #39

Insanity is hereditary; you get it from your children. - Sam Levenson

Funny but true. Sometimes parents are more childish than their children are, but it's ok, no big deal, they were children too, that wasn't from the past life, for sure. And the separation of routines and everyday anxiety and stress is needed, too. And by the incompetence I mean everything but chronic intoxication because I think that alcohol shouldn't be an excuse for bad behaviour, although it is usually attributed to.Alcohol can't delete your problems, it just hushes them up and they will be shown sooner or later!

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow quote #38

The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Symbolically, it's said very well, but it's probably misunderstood. I often burned myself in situations like that and got a scar which is just the same as this quote. The problem is curiosity and humans pursuit to be all that he wants, to change what he doesn't like. Honestly, It would be weird if it wasn't like that, but it doesn't always end like it should.Sometimes it's better to let things be the way they are because of this, that somebody smarter than me told, WHO KNOWS WHY IS THAT GOOD.

Anne Frank quote #37

Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart. - Anne Frank

When I saw this quote I thought "Oh yeah, again the same, I hear it all the time, so old", but when I saw who said it, a shiver went through my body, I haven't felt something similar for a long time. I was ashamed I even thought that.

Anne was a Jewess who was hiding in a house and writting a diary which is later used as evidence against all acts committed by the occupier. Hard words, but imagine when relatively little girl said something like that in a situation when she knew nobody can help her. It is expected from her to hate people with all her heart who are evil to her and her family, but no, she's showing humanity and love which is hiding in every one of us. Think about this.

When the sun is shining I can do anything; no mountain is too high, no trouble too difficult to overcome. - Wilma Rudolph

Summer. The sun is shining and everything is just perfect. When snow is everywhere around you, everything's freezy and it's very cold, you just want sun, sunbathing and a swimpool. In summer everything seems so easy, without problems to do anything. There are no pediments, you feel like the whole world is yours and like you can party whole night and just spend time with your friends, without school and job.When the sun comes, life gets better.

Lord Byron quote #35

Friendship may and often does grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship. - Lord Byron

There are so many stories and mits about this but I can tell you a real truth, maybe even from my experience.

When two people are in relationship they're sharing their secrets with each other at the same time but I still think there is a boundary they're not crossing. I doubt that partners would share their love experiences from the past. If they suspect that that will ruin their relationship they won't do it but they will tell a friend for sure. Hypothetical, if they broke up, friendship won't be real. They would find out that their relationship was just misleading the partner of faking reality and intimate reality. They would ruin a fake picture of their partner and they would think that the time was wasted. But, if the love is real no harsh truth will destroy it. Think about this, I have already lost in this so I gotta stop now. This is a subject for a looot of thinking.

Rober Green Ingersoll quote #34

The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart. - Rober Green Ingersoll

Defeat. Something that every man has to face from early childhood with harmless ups and downs with other friends to great defeats both in physical, emotional and financial meaning.

It is virtue when you can face a defeat with courage, considering the bad moves with a lesson that taught you not to make the same mistake again. It is a flaw when people don't do that but make the same mistakes again, bang their heads against the wall. You should come out stronger from every defeat because:
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"

Mahatma Gandhi quote #33

You must be the change you wish to see in the world. - Mahatma Gandhi

Changing. That happens to everyone. Even when we don't want that. Nobody wants to get old, but that's how your life is, you can't change it.

Everybody wishes a better life and better future. We want for all people to be happy, helpful and to be good to us. But who will behave good if you don't? That's like a relationship with your kids. You gotta be good and caring, you have to be an example and to show them how to be as good person as you are. It is hard sometimes, but you have to. It's worthless and waste of time if you just wait for everyone to respect you and do everything for you if you're just sitting there, not doing the same for them. Maybe you want your president to be fair and honest, to raise your salary or to reduce prices in supermarket, but you can't be bad citizen and not respecting his laws. If you want to change someone, change yourself first.

Marilyn Monroe quote #32

I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it. - Marilyn Monroe

Men. So weird kind. They want a good looking and smart woman to love them when they don't care how they look and how they think and talk to us. They try to change us to be a woman from their dreams. But what happens with our wishes and desires? They're gone. He will just throw you away as an old patch if you're not what he wishes for. But when we ask them just a little thing they're becoming so proud and insincere, insensitive. That's so true and so poor. Of course there are exceptions and bow down to them, but there are just some.

Why is so hard for them not to flirt with other women when they have a girlfriend? Why are you with her anyway if you're going to be with other ones? That just doesn't make sense. I know women are not angels either, but we're talking about men kind right now. Like Beyonce says "Who run the world? GIRLS" ! It's not too hard to realise that a woman won't live and be with a man who don't let her be a women just like she wants. You can't make us be what we're not.

Ralph Waldo Emerson quote #31

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Life. What is life? I just can't make a definition, I think no one can. I think it's like a gathering with a lot of bad and good moments and I think that we have to live both. Nobody can have everything, and be just happy,no pain. When you're rich you may not have a family or you're sick, bad things just happen. And when you're poor you don't have money but you often have family and someone to rely on.

You have to catch all the chances you got, because if you don't, maybe that same chance won't be in front of you again in your whole life. What if you miss a really good chance, and you can't use it anymore? No, you have to catch it, that's the essence of life. You create your own life, you choose if it's going to be bad or if it's gonna be filled with happiness. You never know what might happen. You shouldn't be afraid of something or someone. You only live once, so don't lose your life for nothing. You should fill it with beautiful moments that you will remember for the rest of your life. It's time to conquer the fears and take every chance that life gives you. Make a list of fears and wishes for life. Try to get done everything that's possible and you will see how that checkmarks will make you happy.

Winston Churchill quote #30

If you're going through hell, keep going. - Winston Churchill

When I saw this quote I instantly thought about these 2 days. I started wearing eyeglasses on Wednesday. It was a real hell. They say I look good with them. But I think it's awful. When I entered my classroom everyone was looking at me like I'm crazy or something. But I just straighted up my head and walked to my seat. I felt weird. I hated it. Today, it's Friday and it's little easier but I still don't wear them when I go out of my classroom and through the hall. There's my crush, so of course I don't.

I just want to say that you have to keep going whatever happens. And if that's something you can't change no matter how hard you try, just like my situation is, you better adapt to it and be strong. If someone says something bad about you, you shouldn't frustrate yourself about that. Hey, there's karma, keep calm. If something bad happens to you or you have a problem, I bet you have friends and people who love you who will give you advice and be with you through everything. Just keep going, no matter what happens, you can't change your destiny.

Claude Bernard quote #29

I was really busy yesterday, so I couldn't write here. I own you one more quote for Thursday, so here is it. :) Sorry I'm late.


It is what we know already that often prevents us from learning. - Claude Bernard

When we learn something we immediately become satisfied and proud of ourselves. That's a fact, a law of nature, we can't control that feeling. I know that when I learn my lessons for school. Let's say I have 40 pages to learn, when I learn first 10 I'm happy and eager to learn some more. But when I learn 20 pages I already become tired so I say "Let it go, it was enough, I already know enough". It helps you to stop learning and it's a really bad reason.

We should learn every day, not just what you have to learn for school and a good grade. Read a book, learn from life lessons. It will help you to get through your life much easier and without many impediments. When we say "I already know enough, I have nothing to learn" you just persuade your mind to think like that and to stop learning. But no, there's always something new to learn. It doesn't matter if that's a new dish you're planning to cook or you want to learn to speak another language. jJust learn. Be educated. That's it. Basically, I told you what I think about this and I hope you'll accept mine thinking.

Napoleon Bonaparte quote #28

Death is nothing but to live defeated and unglorious is to die daily. - Napoleon Bonaparte

Old people say they're not afraid of dying.They say "it will happen when it happens"
They just pray for a painless death. There are people that live really poor life. Their every day is painful and they sometimes wish thay could die in the moment.

In my school there is a boy that gets mocked  and bad treated a lot. I can't really get into  his mind but I can see that he's not good and that he's uncorfomtable in a big group of people. Everytime he goes through the hall a group of "bad" boys throw things at him and call him  a rude names. He must be desperated and disappointed in life. I don't know why they do that to him, probably that's just a fun for them and he may thinks that he just doesn't have luck. However, people shouldn't be   dissapointed in their life, because you live only once, so live it properly, don't be judgemental. You don't have time to be rude or unhappy, you should spend your life as happier as you can.  Y. O. L. O   (You Only Live Once)

Anne Morrow Lindbergh quote #27

If you surrender completely to the m9oments as they pass, you live more richly those moments - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Use the moment. A right thing but rarely used. I know a lot of people who clutter when something nice happens to them, they think like "now something really bad is going to happen" which is really wrong.
I don't accept that thinking like "what goes around comes back around" at least not in this context because if something really nice happens to you or you got a chance for something catch it , don't let it go away and in the end use the moment and enjoy it, don't let anything to be more important that that.
Because maybe this is your last chance so enjoy it as much as you can.

Geoffrey Chaucer quote #26

Time and tide wait for no man. - Geoffrey Chaucer

Everything has it's time. This term shouldn't be misused, but just properly understood and used.
You have to fight for what you want, It won't come just be itself. There a small example, so find a lesson from it, like always.

I often watch movies and I always find somebody from my environment who is similar to something or somebody from a movie.His wife ran away, left him with 4 kids alone in a village with a small house which is barely holding on to its feet. What would happen if he waited for a food to come from the sky, waited for time to run over him and take from him that little he has, children. That's a deadlock and this is Serbia, people like that lives in the most difficult conditions because of a poor, let's say trashy social program of protecting that kids from illness induced by lack of hygiene and feeding that won't saturate a dog and not to talk about a kid in growth. Time will show what is going to happen when he gets old and when old age run over him.

Honore de Balzac quote #25



It is easy to sit up and take notice, What is difficult is getting up and taking action. - Honore de Balzac

Unfortunately, it’s always like this. Sometimes even perfect plans have a defect, precisely every plan has a defect but while we’re planning it we have to know how to realize it, how to
achieve it. It is the easiest just to sit down and dictate, it is the easiest thing to do but it’s cowardly.  I've always hated people like that, that famous “ego”, that kind of people care just for themselves. Me, myself and I, they can’t see beyond their own noses, they just want to suck out on behalf of another. Moral and patriotic man couldn’t do it. Ok, I don’t want to move away from the topic.

When the project, plan is more extensive there are greater chances of something going wrong. There is fantastic big-budget project of Red Bull whe
re Felix Baumgartner jumps from space. I believe they needed a perfect organisation for that. Because that’s not a joke, not to miss a single mistake. And the jump was delayed 10 times. Everything has to be perfect because that’s the big thing and there is NO ROOM FOR ERROR!

Oliver Cromwell - #24

Not only strike while the iron is hot, but make it hot by striking. - Oliver Cromwell

Everyday I see the real example of this. I find it in small things, for example fight for a better mark, thoughts, objection etc.
There is an example from sport. When someone makes a mistake, the judge will react and punish, but if the judge thinks that wasn't done on purpose teammates, audience pressure, heat up the atmosphere, the judge is between two fires. Dilemma. What to do? If he changes his decision he will satisfy the audience but that wouldn't be in his interest, he wouldn't defend his credibility. Think before you put somebody in a situation like that,  how would you feel in his place.

I'm not saying you shouldn't fight for your attitude if it's the right one, I'm just saying that you shouldn't use your right of objection on someone's decision when that is not needed and don't make somebody gets in situation like that when it's unnecessarily. Think about it!

Lionel Trilling quote #23

Immature artists imitate. Mature artists steal. - Lionel Trilling

Copycats. There are different kinds. The worst ones are in art. To make a piece of art you need to live it first and then to write it. It will come, but something have to cause it first, a gesture, a scene.

When it comes to immature artists that can't come to the fore in my opinion because they have no experience, they don't know how to transfer something like uncut diamond. I mean, maturity of artist is not about his years because he can be immature in 50 as well as in 20 years, but in 50 years that would mean he's not an artist. When he's without idea he's looking for it in another act so he doesn't have his own style.

On the other side there are mature artists who don't have ideas anymore, and it is understood that they once had, but they have been overcome, forgotten as the time had passed, but that's not the reason to take something what ain't their. That's the easiest thing to them because they already have their own style, it's easier to believe that thing is their.

George Orwell quote #22

Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. - George Orwell

We all come in the situation when we can't say everything in the face, when we're limited like a dog on a leash. I hate that feeling, the feeling of pangs of conscience that pierces me when I don't say my real thoughts, the thing remains sketchy and nothing is like it should be.

I adore to say everything I think, it's a beautiful feeling when you're outspoken, when you don't care what will happen. That's not always so good. It often happens that the situation changes and something I just said doesn't go in my favor and sometimes in a fit of rage it's misinterpreted and then I make myself a problem which wouldn't happen if my tongue was a bit shorter.

William Makepeace Thackeray quote #21

Next to excellence is the appreciation of it. - William Makepeace Thackeray

Were you ever thankful for what you have and not just thankful for material things but the things you can't buy with money? Not everyone can belong to the "rich" kind of people and have everything material but we gotta be thankful for what we already have.

Imagine a rich man, has property all around the world, big companies and his only concern is to mantain share prices on world Stock. But,  what would that worth it if he doesn't have hands, if he's handicapped? He can't even hug his kids for real, his wife, he can't give them what everyone else can, even a poor one who lives in a shed in a poor country. It wouldn't be enough when he would have 100 more properties either. I'm not saying you shouldn't fight then, you should persist, be above the situation, not letting it to be a limit. The real example is Nick Vujicic, read something about him because he DIDN'T GIVE UP, though he had a reason. BIG RESPECT! Here's something about him: http://www.lifewithoutlimbs.org/

Mother Teresa quote #20

Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies. - Mother Teresa

I have something like that. Amulet that I use in hard moments to fortify me and to give me strength to pull through. I think every one of us has an amulet but it's hard for him to admit it because that will show his weakness and that he's prone to such things which are "for weak ones".

I have a necklace with a pendant in the shape of heart. My grandma gave it to me when I was 10 and now it really means so much to me.
Whenever I had hard moments in life I remembered it, I tightened it and I knew what to do. I have much more confident with it and it means so much to me. I'm not going anywhere without it and I'll always keep it selfishly because it's my self-confidence, without it I'm not complete and I believe that you have something like that and don't be ashamed of it. If I'm ashamed of my necklace I'm ashamed of myself.

Jeanne Moreau quote #19

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age. - Jeanne Moreau

That's really true. I can't describe love, but I can define it like a special state of mind where person forgets all problems, feels calmness and well-being. If the love is real and honest in his eyes will stay just that person, he will be blinded by it and he won't look at anybody else.

I often see old grandparents on the street and some of them are older than 80 years. What fascinates me the most is that the love lasts. After all those years they're holding hands like a very first day they have met. It fascinates me when one partner is not saturated with the other one and he doesn't want a change, I guess, that wouldn't be a real and honest love then. I want a love like that.
Real and honest.

“Because phones and gadgets, the evolution of man will develop a third hand.”
- @pera_vampir (from twitter)

It's already 18th post and this is already becoming tiresome, boring, introduces the monotony. I planned to write every day, my inspiration is disappearing. When I was little, they told me "If you're bored in a moment then change the thing you're doing", according to that, let's play a little.
Twitter is a great place for fun, has a lot of comedy content so there is one, I won't say influential, but the twitter user who I gladly read.
He was right, nowadays technology really has a big influence on mankind, we just can't live without it. It eventually adapts to us and our needs but in our subconscious there is a fear that technology will overpower us, that it will come to the moment when we would have to adapt to it. Nowadays, there is a lot of cool things, you just can't resist them but I think that there should be an intellectual limit, parallel to love and respect old values because we don't want to be swallowed by our own greed.

Walter Scott quote #17

Look back, and smile on perils past. - Walter Scott

The past. We should remember it and not to create the future based on it. We should learn on it, to learn from experience and not to randomly repeat same mistakes from the past.
I love remembering it, especially our funny and stupid moments from childhood that wasn't that bad. First love, we were so funny, I still have a bag of first chewing gum he gave me and I remember my first kiss.

It was in elementary school, IV grade. He sent me a message to come out on a playground and that he has something to tell me. My heart was beating so fast, I felt weird, I think that was the feeling of famous butterflies in stomach but mine were different. I felt like I had a whole zoo instead of butterflies in my stomach. I came out and he gave me a chewing gum, kissed me and ran away. I think you all know that feeling and I love to remember it.

Eraser, I'd like to have it in my life. I think that everyone has that chapter in life that you don't want to remember, we want to hush it up and leave it in a shadow. Unfortunately, once something had happened, it can't be erased.
I love movies on an abstract topic of famous TIME MACHINE and all the legends connected with it. I know what I would change, all the moments of shame and unpleasant situations but, when I think about it one more time that would be wasting of time because what had already happened, it had happened, it was and now it's behind me. I would use the time machine for a good cause, to save lives and to avoid losses. I would certainly be tempted to abuse it, for example, get a lottery because I know in advance the next numbers, oohh that would be so cool. Imagine that.

William Arthur Ward quote #15

A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.-William Arthur Ward

Kindness as a characteristic is beautiful, it should present cultural behavior but it is often known to be false. I think that we shouldn't generalize things but I hate such people generally. People who won't give you a warm smile like a simbol of kindness if they don't have benefit from it.

If we use gentler face in negotations instead of serious facial expressions the result would be much better, for sure. Everybody loves a smile, that's a simbol that someone noticed you and maybe even fell in love with you.
I know that feeling when someone smiles at you and if I like that person butterflies in the stomach activate and I feel like I'm in seventh heaven. Yes, that's the real thing. And a warm smile serve as a universal language because everybody will understand what you wanted to say and know for sure that you won't be understood on a wrong way.

Richard Wagner quote #14

Joy is not in things; it is in us. - Richard Wagner

Joy. I wonder what does it means to me? How much do I need to be happy?
People says that for happiness it takes very little. Personally, I'm happy when I got a nice thing, clothes, a new mobile phone or something similar.

There is a kid in my neighbourhood. With no parents. He lives with his grandma but she's not able to provide financial assistance and they live from the miserable pension and they barely survive. I just think sometimes how does he feel, since he can't have the main things and not to even mention something more expensive. I think about how he need just a little to be happy, a small token of appreciation would mean so much to him.
Then, I see that joy and happiness are in ourselves. Time with my family, when I can afford a moment of gathering my family, unfortunately, that can't be bought with money. Appreciate what you have, not everyone can afford it. "You don't know what you really got, until you lose it."

Dwight L. Moody quote #13

Character is what a man is in the dark. - Dwight L. Moody

Good estimate. This is not very familiar to me. Usually when I meet people I get the wrong picture about them, I see just a surface layer, which is often misleading and they're not as good as they present themselves.

I believe it's a virtue, to know how to recognize a person's essence, know to look beneath the mask, read between the lines. But that recognizing has alternative, too. In my country there's the saying "In trouble a friend is recognized." , I think the English equivalent is "A friend in need is a friend indeed." and that's true. That's how I gained real friends.

High school, new friends, new environment. Many different people and many different opinions.
We would say "hundred people, hundred tempers", I gotta find friends but how?! I found at least 10 of my kind, with same habit and similar opinion but quite another mentality.First year of high school I failed in separating anyone of them but by the time there were difficult situations and only two were the most prominent. They offered me support and gave me advices which were crucially important for me. That's why I love them so much and again I'm saying: "A friend in need is a friend indeed".

Helen Keller quote #12

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart. - Helen Keller

Can you imagine a day without eyesight and sense of touch? There are moments when we don't need it. Love, do we really need eyes or hands for it? If the answer is YES than you haven't felt the real, one without which nothing would exist, essence of existence that leads to sin and rash and hasty moves love for sure.

According to the history, Trojan War was fought over a women, a real love leaded to war which indicates the readiness of two people to pass the impediments and seas and oceans weren't limit anymore.
They weren't driven by their eyes, or hands, or legs, they didn't even think for themselves. They we're leaded by their hearts.

Mark Twain quote #11

Only one thing is impossible for God: To find any sense in any copyright law on the planet. - Mark Twain

Right of possession was always clearly defined. You got something, it's yours and nobody can't abuse that. But what about those intangible things? Let's assume, I make a brilliant invention, discovery of the century and then there appears a "clever one" and takes all the credit.
I have my own right on idea, why would someone abuse that? And yes, we came to the conclusion and conclusion consists of two words: PERSONAL BENEFIT.
I've always hated people like that. I'm not enought experienced yet to talk from my own experience but I like to pull out the analogy.
I'm in kindergarten... Nursery governess has told us to think about "My family" subject, and I told friend my idea. I was going to draw my mom, dad and me playing in the sand in front of the house. After elaborating the plan I set off in the realization of the same. When we had to present it, my friend ran in front of me and showed it. Everyone thought I copied, hey, but that was my idea! For me that was the end of the world but somehow I survived, and now I learned a lesson from that little thing. You should, too.
I believe this shouldn't exist, and according to God's rules this doesn't even make sense.

William Shakespeare quote #10

When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry. - William Shakespeare

Transience. I'm finding a way to write about this and not to soak my keyboard with tears.
Innocent period is transient, everyone of us before or after gets obligations which are a simbol of a grew up man. Although, before that period appears our parents somehow fulfill the duty that their parents also had. They carry us to the right path, some less, some more successfully, but they do still.
They develop our moral values and a feeling of responsibility and behavior towards society and culture.

I like the concept but it's all over. After fulfillment of their duties, some time in the middle age of life and in the end, unfortunately they are in that situation. Influenced by years, they become helpless and eager attention. Then, we need to help them and to point attention as much as they did for us on the very beginning.
If anyone reads this, please, just without crying.Thank you.

Denis Diderot quote #9

You have to make it happen. - Denis Diderot

In fiction, I often identify desires and opportunities. Why couldn't I have all that beautiful, shiny and glamourous stuff that celebrities posses? What do they have, and I don't?
Ohh, I'd really like to be on their place, to go wherever I want, do whatever I want and the most important to have EVERYTHING I want. "Way to happiness", sounds good, the ones that passed through it don't want to show a map to happiness. Maybe that's because of selfishness and disbelief, who knows/

I can make my dreams to come true! Ok, you already probably thought that it's about IMAGINATION but what's wrong with it!?
I'd like it more of celebrities and influential people would engage their heart more, to find humanity in themselves and help people who need their help more that anything else. Trust me,  they won't look a gift horse in the mouth. Give up one iPhone, glamourous party, expensive bags...

I obviously moved away from the topic but why can't we make somebody else's dreams come true?

Paulo Coehlo quote #8

„When you say ‘YES’ to others, make sure you are not saying ‘NO’ to yourself. “ - Paulo Coehlo

To get this quote interpreted I had to delve into it well. What's the point? "This is absurdly" - I thought. This quote can definitely be intepreted on many ways.
First, I wonder when do you say 'YES'? I can say 'YES' even when I don't mean it. Maybe that's the essence of this quote!?
I will definitely interpret it from that side.
I say 'YES' when I don't mean it only if I do what others want so I won't disappoint them.
Maybe the problem of the present is that we cut out the opinion of others, we want to be what we're not, play as other plays, we don't think with our own head. That road has no intersection, it's one-way. Interpret it however you want, this is all you'll get from me.

Plato quote #7

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet. - Plato

Honestly, I don't believe in "my heater is love" or "love makes people do the unthinkable".
Maybe that's because I've never felt the "Yes, he's Mr Right for sure, there's no way I'm wrong" love and to add, I'm 17.

On the internet I see many girls head over heels, unaware of the fact that it might cost them, God forbid they do "that thing" which first time should be with a right one and not let's call it loved ones.
Ok, I believe there are people who are inspired by love, I don't exclude that possibility  and that's really nice when love is platonic and I believe that many famous writters wrote their works with a help of love.
Nice, I'd like there are more people like that, romantic people, who don't abuse that word.

Warren Buffett quote #6

I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me. - Warren Buffett

Have you ever wondered about your identity? Have you ever asked yourself a question:
"Who am I?",
"How others see me?",
"Do I have my own style or am I just one more copy in the sea?"
?
You haven't?! Well, I have!
By surfing the internet, fashion blogs and similar sites I was looking for myself, I tried to find myself in a celebrity, somebody like me. I had Hollywood in my little finger, I knew everyone's style and what's cool. I gathered all the cool clothes, and I was gathering courage to appear in publicity wearing that because, hey, you still have to get used to glamour and elegancy.
Of course, probationary period with that outfit I was walking around the house until my neighbour haven't burst!
Imagine what she sad! "Whoa, when are you going to put pictures on facebook with that?!"
I was logging into facebook when I saw that every girl is doing that because they want to draw attention to themselves, and it's not hot anymore, it's becoming funny. The story is fabricated but it has to do with reality and with this I appeal to privacy on social networks, don't make the same mistake.

Andrew Jackson quote #5

You must pay the price if you wish to secure the blessing. - Andrew Jackson

To pay a blessing? That reminds me of Catholicism time when you had to pay for forgiveness of sins. It was the period of immorality and easily understanding that things.
But, let's say that this quote has nothing to do with that... no, even better, let's say that this never happened. Then, what does the quote presents?! Well, there is one optimistic opinion:
Everybody knows for that unwritten rule that says that everything has it's price, like "what goes around, comes around" , and that means that anything invested won't just disappear. Take a look at sportsmen and all waiver they invest to score. I'm proudly giving you an example of Novak Djokovic who with no conditions succeeded in his goal because he paid his price with a wholesale waiver. Just think about it...
