Look back at your life, it's always the hardest times that made you who are.
Do what you can't.
All from Casey Neistat, one of my favorite content creators on YouTube. If you have never checked out one of his videos, you are seriously missing out. This dude is so inspiring.

My favorite quotes are by P.G. Wodehouse. Humor taken with a pinch of salt makes awesome quotes.
Marriage is not a process for prolonging the life of love, sir. It merely mummifies its corpse
