Lately ,reading quotes has become one of my favorite hobbies.I will keep adding my favorite quotes to this list whenever I come across a new one that touches my heart.

"Don't part with your illusions.When they are gone you may still exist,but you have ceased to live"

-Mark Twain


"I can accept failure.
Everyone fails at something.
But I can't accept not trying.

-Michael Jordan


"Regret of things we did can be tempered by time;it is regret for things we didnot do that is inconsolable"

-Sydney Smith


“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable.It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.You build up all these defenses,you build up a whole suit of armor,so that nothing can hurt you,then one stupid person,no different from any other stupid person wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you.They didn’t ask for it.They did something dumb one day,like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your anymore.Love takes hostages.It gets inside you.It eats you and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘may be we should be just friends’ truns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart.It hurts.Not just in the imagination.Not just in the mind.It’s a soul-hurt,a real gets –inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.I hate love”.

-Neil Gaiman

Life is full of paradoxes. Charge gives you a shock, it gives life too. Fire burns you, it gives you light too. Faith blinds you, it gives you hope too. Love surely asks for much, but it gives you peace, solace , a reason to live and continue to give.
