&quot;The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in. But I&#039;ve learned that deep down, there&#039;s a light that never goes out!&quot;<br /> &quot;There is no darkness strong enough in this world that can diminish the light in our hearts.&quot;<br /> -Kingdom Hearts

New Moon - S. Meyer <br /> &#039;I flung my leg over the edge and ram through the knee deep water, it sprays all around me. &quot;Edward!&quot; I yell knowing it is useless. The crowd is too loud and my voice is breathless with exsertion. But I couldn&#039;t stop screaming.&#039;

Favorite Quote:
&quot;...When I am, as it were, completely myself, entirely alone, and of good cheer - say traveling in a carriage, or walking after a good meal, or during the night when I cannot sleep - it is on such occasions that my ideas flow best, and most abundantly. Whence and how they come, I know not, nor can I force them...&quot;--Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.<br /> By Elisabeth Kuebler-Ross
