Man will nicht nur glücklich sein; Sondern Glücklicher als die Anderen. Und das ist deshalbt so Schwer; weil wir die anderen für glücklicher halten als sie sind.

The longer you hide feelings for someone, the stronger you fall for them

First to apologize is the bravest.
First to forgive ist the strongest.
First to forget is the happiest.

There are amazingly wonderful people in all walks of life
some familiar to us and others not.
Stretch yourself and really get to know people.
People are in many ways one of our greatest treasures.

Listen to the mustn’ts, child.
Listen to the don’ts.
Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts.
Listen to the never haves,
then listen close to me…
Anything can happen, child.
Anything can be.

Man verliebt sich, wenn man eine andere Person in einem anderen Leben sein möchte.
Man verliebt sich nicht nur in eine Person, sondern in gewisser Weise auch in eine Gelegenheit, eine neue Identität.

You can talk with someone for years, everyday, and still, it won't mean as much as what you can have when you sit in front of someone, not saying a word, yet you feel that person, feel like you have known the person for forever.... connections are not made with the tongue.

I had seven faces
Thought I new which one to wear

The truth is,
unless you let go,
unless you forgive yourself,
unless you forgive the situation,
unless you realize that the situation is over,
you cannot move forward.


Let today be the day you stop being haunted by the ghost of yesterday.
Holding a grudge & harboring anger/resentment is poison to the soul.
Get even with people..
but not those who have hurt us,
forget them,
instead get even with those who have helped us.


I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed
in the morning, the devil says, "aw shit, he's up!


I will not try to convince you to love me,
to respect me, to commit to me. I deserve better than that
I AM BETTER THAN THAT...Goodbye.


How would your life be different if…
You stopped worrying about things you can’t control
and started focusing on the things you can?
Let today be the day…You free yourself from fruitless worry,
seize the day and take effective action on things you can change.

My past has not defined me, destroyed me, deterred me, or defeated me; it has only strengthened me.


You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it fearlessly.

When a small pebble drops into a serene pool of water, it causes a ripple in the water in every direction, even disturbing distant still waters.

Wer nur die Hälfte liebt, der liebt dich nicht halb, sondern gar nicht. Der will dich zurechtschneiden, amputieren, verstümmeln.

Ich sah' dich an, um mich satt zu sehen an dir, solange du da warst. Ich habe mich hungrig gesehen, ich habe mich durstig gesehen an dir.

Nicht nichts ohne dich, aber nicht dasselbe. Nicht nichts ohne dich, aber vielleicht weniger. Nicht nichts, aber weniger und weniger. Vielleicht nicht nichts ohne dich, aber nicht mehr viel.

Zweifle nicht an dem, der dir sagt er hat Angst, aber hab' Angst vor dem, der dir sagt, er kennt keinen Zweifel.

“He read a lot. He used a lot of big words. I think maybe part of what got him into trouble was that he did too much thinking. Sometimes he tried too hard to make sense of the world, to figure out why people were bad to each other so often. A couple of times I tried to tell him it was a mistake to get too deep into that kind of stuff, but Alex got stuck on things. He always had to know the absolute right answer before he could go on to the next thing.”
― Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild

I once knew a girl who loved things most peole shown.
Every man she ever loved was terrible to her, terrible I tell you.
But there was something about them that intrigued her -
she liked broken things, broken people.
To her, if there was nothing to fix, there was nothing to love.

I admit, I was afraid to love.
Not just love, but to love her.
For she was a stunning
mystery. She carried things
deep inside her that no one
has yet to understand,
and I, I was afraid to fail,
like the others.

She was the ocean and i was just a boy
who loved the waves but was completely
terrified to swim.

I think we are and will always
be lonely people in a lonely
world under lonely stars.
We can never starve our loneliness.
We can only hope that by the
company of others,
it doesn't devour us.

Know this and know it more than you've ever bothered to understand anything before:
I am, as lonely as they come.
As empty as they make them.
There is a reason my liver is filled with whiskey.
A cloaked rhyme to why my lungs have fallen in love with smoke.
I am lonely.
But I have come to the conclusion that loneliness, no matter how often it weighs the soul, is sometimes, a beautiful thing.

But we are open flowers in the windy fields of this war-torn world

I ran away
I could not take the burden of both me and you
It was too fast
Casting love on me as if it were a spell I could not break
When it was a promise I could not make

But what if I was wrong?
Oh, what if I was wrong?

But hold on to what you believe in the light
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

I'm not whole when you're not near

Im Laufe der Zeit nimmt die Seele die Farbe der Gedanken an.

Vergiss nicht: Man benötigt nur wenig, um ein glückliches Leben zu führen.

if you only walk long enough

Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur
Die Welt will betrogen sein, also soll sie betrogen werden

Per aspera ad astra
Über raue Pfade gelangt man zu den Sternen

Gnothi seauton
Erkenne dich selbst

Memento mori
Bedenke, dass du sterben musst

Fata viam invenient
Das Schicksal findet seinen Weg

Non ignara mali, miseris succurrere disco
Unglück lehrte mich, den Unglücklichen zu helfen

Faber est suae quisque fortunae
Jeder ist Schmied seines Glücks

Ego sum, qui sum
Ich bin, wer ich bin

Dum spiro spero
Solange ich atme, hoffe ich

Ab imo pectore
Von ganzem Herzen

"Die wahre Wahrheit zwischen zwei Menschen kann nicht ausgesprochen werden. Sobald wir sprechen, schließen sich Türen; das Wort dient mehr den unwirklichen Mitteilungen, man spricht in den Stunden, in denen man nicht lebt."

Robert Musil
