The best things in life are unseen, that's why you close your eyes when you kiss, cry, or dream.
What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments which take your breath away.

You are only as strong as your weakest link.

Beautiful, espeically the mirror's reply! I didn't quite expect it to end this way, though, with the mirror being thrown away. Great job!
