What's a quote that helps you get through hard times, or one that you live by every day?

I'll start with a few :D

• Be the change you want to see - I think about this daily. We live in a messed up world where hate, rudeness and apathy is becoming increasingly common. Let's not resort to being bad or negative and stand up for what we believe in and spread kindness (as corny as it sounds but I live by this)
• Does your fear matter more, or what is after your fear? - This is silly, but I heard it in a Dhar Mann video...um...but honestly that is deep, cuz we all have our own fears and insecurities when we have a goal in mind - and while these fears can stop us, we have to remember WHY we have this goal in the first place, and also to push ourselves to our fullest potential so we can achieve the goals we'll be so happy about, if that makes sense :3
• A butterfly can't see its own beauty - everyone thinks butterflies are beautiful, right? (i lowk dislike all bugs but for the sake of this forum let me pretend i do) the thing is, they can't see how pretty their wings look! Same with us...we may have insecurities about certain physical or personal attributes we have, but everyone else, especially those who love us, see our true beauty and potential. This is a reminder that we have to be kinder to ourselves and love who we are. We are all made a certain way for a reason, we all have these physical attributes for a reason, we all have different beauty marks, scars, etc for a reason, we all have certain interests and personality FOR A REASON; these all make us, us. We just have to learn to cherish that :3

I hope this will help whoever is going through a rough patch, or whoever needs to hear this. Have a great day/night! :D

@bunnibun7 That is such a meaningful quote! I'm glad it helped you push through, our lives ARE too precious to end just bc the world may be a crappy place. what matters is that we push through and create our OWN happiness frfr :p

@Somedeadpoet  woah that's deep, i am really glad your teacher persuaded you to compete, and congrats for winning! :D

@Somedeadpoet YESS, it's our life and we can do whatever we want! if we really want something, who's to say we can't achieve it? >:D

'don't be sad that it's over, be glad that it happened' and also 'if im feeling this sad now, it means i needed to have felt really happy during it' i think everyone knows where it comes from it's not the most original quote ever but it really helps me when i feel sad about stuff 

"The minute I need to start pleasing five people, I won't please anyone. But if I only please myself, I might please ten people, you see. The more selfish you are, the more generous you are, as contradictory as that sounds." - Björk
