“I learned to love myself, because I sleep with myself every night and I wake up with myself every morning, and if I don’t like myself, there’s no reason to even live the life. I love the way I look. I’m fine with it. And if my body changes, I’ll be fine with that.”

I'm single because I'm fucking obnoxious.
Also, my standards are way to high, and all of the men who meet them already have boyfriends.

I am not the kind of girl that gets heartbroken
I feel that,
and right now I’m willing to avoid all things that make my heart beat faster.
‘Cause I can’t do it.
I’ll worry too much, baby.
But man, this is getting hard.My heart is about to burst right out of my chest.
My bones, my muscles, and my skin is anxious.
“We’re so different. We’re hot and cold, fire and water. I’m loud, you’re quiet. I talk, you listen. I’m crazy, you’re sane, but that’s why this works… You fill in my missing pieces and I complete you, and I guess that’s why, despite the questions and the challenges, I still believe in us and I still believe in this… and as long as we have each other, I think we’ll be alright.”

“Out of 1000 hearts, I had to choose you. One of the comets sent to Earth to burn brightly, explode and turn to dust in my atmosphere.”

Listen
Mates of State - Names.
“Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came; you want to be where you can see our troubles are all the same; you want to be where everybody knows your name.”
Only Mates of State can make the “Cheers’” theme song more awesome.
“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.”
—Vincent Van Gogh (via quotewhore)
“And ultimately, they find out everything: How you chew, how you sip, how you hum, how you dance. How you smell at every point in the day, how you are on the phone with your mother, the fact that many of your friends are shallow, that you always have to sit on the aisle, how you never really listen, how whiny you get when you travel, how you’re not gracious to her friends when they call, how certain game shows make you really really happy, how cranky you get because you’re too stupid to remember to eat, how you manage to get confrontational only when it’s with the absolute wrong person to be yelling at, how you don’t like the way you look in any picture you’ve taken since 1973, how you’re unable to get off the phone when you’re running late because you don’t have the ability to say, “This isn’t a good time; can I call you back?” How you have to lick certain fruits before actually eating them, how you have no ability to save receipts - all these things, and they still want to sign on. They still like you.”
—Paul Reiser, Couplehood (via quotewhore)
“People think that the suicidal are sitting there suffering in their own pain all day, just stewing, sitting there getting ready to express it. But really, what the suicidal are doing is watching Wheel of Fortune. Perhaps having a bowl of Frosted Flakes. Maybe another bowl. Somewhere in the middle of the second bowl, the meaningless of the entire universe begins to close in on them.”

“Wanting to be someone you’re not is a waste of the person you are.”
—Kurt Cobain (via) (via quotewhore)
“Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.”
— Jodi Picoult, My Sister’s Keeper (via quotewhore)
