Theodore Roosevelt
You often hear people speaking as if life was like striving upward toward a mountain peak. That is not so. Life is as if you were traveling a ridge crest. You have the gulf of inefficiency on one side and the gulf of wickedness on the other, and it helps not to have avoided one gulf if you fall into the other.
Theodore Roosevelt
To sit home, read one's favorite paper, and scoff at the misdeeds of the men who do things is easy, but it is markedly ineffective. It is what evil men count upon the good men's doing.

- It will come.
With new day comes new strength and new thoughts. Tomorrow changes the face of reality. The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today. Never regret yesterday because I have spent it with a person that matters the most.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge
- Fleabag
Women are born with pain built in. It's our physical destiny: period pains, sore boobs, childbirth, you know. We carry it within ourselves throughout our lives, men don't. They have to seek it out, they invent all these gods and demons and things just so they can feel guilty about things, which is something we do very well on our own. And then they create wars so they can feel things and touch each other and when there aren't any wars they can play rugby.

What they don't tell you is that after the princess kissed the frog and it turned into a prince, she still got salmonella afterward. Don't kiss reptiles or amphibians.

Um that's it have a good day or night. Bye!

- Deserts
When many people think of a desert they think of vast open areas of sand and dunes. But did you know that the largest desert in the world doesn't contain any sand, but instead ice? The largest desert in the world is actually the Antarctic because deserts are measured on the amount of precipitation that it receives which is less than ten inches a year!

- Notes of a crocodile
I was careful to avoid her. Didn't take the initiative, though I longed for her to notice me in the crowd. An upperclassman and my senior, she was an ominous character, a black spade. To shuffle and draw the same card again would be even more ominous.

There's nobody better than you, it took me a while till I knew, but you knew from the start it was us, didn't you? It just took me a while till I knew.

- Decentralized Failure-Tolerant Optimization of Electric Vehicle Charging
The anticipated massive adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) will bring some of the biggest challenges and transformational opportunities for power systems operation. It will inevitably mean that current load patterns, for which transmission and distribution systems have been designed, will drastically change, requiring either new infrastructure or new operating paradigms to maintain the reliability of the power grid.

- Words in the Water
Then, with water in my eyes, the words began to rise from their place. They were beautiful and dread. I reached for them and fed on each phrase. They were honey on my lips, but then a bitter twist in my side. I knew they'd lay me in my grave. "Is there no one who can save me," I cried.
Danielle Laporte
You will always be too much of something for someone: too big, too loud, too soft, too edgy. If you round out your edges, you lose your edge. Apologize for mistakes. Apologize for unintentionally hurting someone - profusely. But don't apologize for being who you are.
Gregg Hurwitz
- Orphan X
"Battle that rages inside every person." "The two wolves." "That's right. One wolf is anger and fear and paranoia and cruelty. The other is kindness, humility, compassion, serenity." And the boy asks his grandfather, "Which wolf wins?" "You remember the answer?" "The one you feed." "That's right."

- What if your motivation isn't strong enough to make you do something?
If your motivation isn't strong enough to get you motivated to do something, use discipline because it will give you the will to do something that you aren't motivated enough to do and it keeps you committed to what you do. If your motivation and discipline aren't strong enough to make you do something then use commitment because it will help you be committed to what you do. If your commitment isn't strong enough to make you do something, use passion and if that doesn't work, use willpower.

- Numbers are also important!
We don't practice the numbers keys as often so let's type: In 1934 there was a girl called Rasia, she was 231 years old and she had 18 element powers, but in 1306 her mother had 32 element powers, so Rasia trained 1357 years to get 32 element powers as her mother, it took her 1000 years to get 9 and then 376 years to get 4! Thanks a lot...! Keep up the good work.

- Assuming People
Only the most naive people assume that what they see is what they get. For in reality, what one sees is likely as not a facade. Every silver lining has a cloud, and every souffle is mostly air.
Han Ybalecter
Humans are equal, just like M 'n M candies. On the outside, humans all look different. People are of different genders, different appearances, and different colors. But they all taste the same.
Harold Jones
Love is worth nothing to some but everything to others. Still, its objective value is neither more than nor less than the value that tennis players ascribe to it.

But you know! I don't think that true happiness lies in front of that freedom! Because happiness only exists within that instant and is not eternal! That's right! People are always lost in their way as they search for the truth that doesn't exist!
