"If you have time to think of a beautiful end, then live beautifully until the end." "First, you have to change, or nothing will change for you," "If you run into the wall and pretend it doesn't exist.You'll never make progress.The wall never will never change,so you are the one who has to change." "Sake sure is nice. You can forget your troubles, if only for a moment. You'll have to remember them tomorrow, though, and they'll be even more painful than they were the night before. You can't run away from things like this." “The night is in its darkest just before dawn. But keep your eyes open. If you avert your eyes from the dark, you’ll be blinded by the rays of a new day. So keep your eyes open, no matter how dark the night ahead may be.” "Tears are handy for washing away troubling and sad feelings. But when you grow up, you'll learn that there are things so sad, they can never be washed away by tears. That there are painful memories that should never be washed away. So people who are truly strong laugh when they want to cry. They endure all of the pain and sorrow while laughing with everybody else."
