&ldquo;When it&#039;s over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don&#039;t want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don&#039;t want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to end up simply having visited this world.&rdquo;

&ldquo;Whatever you are physically...male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy--all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.&rdquo; <br /> ― Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

&quot;I&#039;m in love with you, and I&#039;m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I&#039;m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we&#039;re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we&#039;ll ever have, and I am in love with you&quot; - The fault in our stars
