Here are some more quotes from Tennyson's Ulysses

I cannot rest from travel, I will drink
Life to the lees.

How dull it is to pause, to make an end
To rust unburnished, not to shine in use!
As though to breathe were life. Life piled on life

To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield

And here's one that isn't from Ulysses:

Beauty will save the world.

Fyodor Doestevsky (or however you spell that)

‎"Let me tell you something Six. There's a borderline between the land of the incredibly stupid and the land of the drooling idiot and on that border there's a toll booth...Joey works in that toll booth"
-Blossom Russo, "Blossom" (TV show)

I re-watched a move called "Center Stage". This quote stood out to me as very profound. Hearing that quote was a defining moment for me. It made me know I made the right decision in regards to a major.

"That's what ballet would be … a life of wishing I had found something I really love instead of something I just happen to do well" - Maureen Cummings

We're all guilty of the same things/We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through/And I know/That I have been forgiven/And I hope/You can forgive me too.

Relient K, "Forgiven"

When men cease to believe in something, they do not believe in nothing, they believe in anything.

G.K. Chesterton.

I want to thrive, not just survive

Switchfoot, "Thrive"

Until I die I'll sing these songs/On the shores of Babylon/Still looking for a home/In a world where I belong/Where the weak are finally strong/Where the righteous right the wrongs/Still looking for a home/In a world where I belong

Switchfoot, "Where I Belong"

Why would I wait till I die, to come alive?

Switchfoot, "Afterlife"

"Some girls want vampires.
Some want werewolves.
I'm just waiting for my Time Lord."

"Dress everyday like you're running away with the Doctor in those clothes."

Yeah. Doctor Who.

Just because you're running doesn't mean that you're scared/Just because it's law don't mean that it's fair/Never let another tell your soul what to fear

Switchfoot, "Rise Above It"

"High school is like a spork. It's a crappy spoon and it's a crappy fork, so in the end it's just useless." - John Mayer

"Tell me when the time we had slipped away
Tomorrow turned to yesterday
And I don't know how
Tell me what can stop this river of tears
It's been building up for years
For this moment now

Here I stand
Arms open wide
I've held ya close
Kept ya safe
Till you could fly

Tell me where the road ahead is gonna bend
And how to harness up the wind
And how to say goodbye

Tell me why
Why does following your dreams
Take you far away from me
And I knew that it would

Tell me how to fill the space you left behind
And how to laugh instead of cry
And how to say goodbye..."
-Michael W. Smith, "How To Say Goodbye"

There's no point being grown-up if you can't be childish sometimes.

Solara: You know, you say you've been walking for thirty years, right?
Eli: Right?
Solara: Have you ever thought that maybe you were lost?
Eli: Nope.
Solara: Well, how do you know that you're walking in the right direction?
Eli: I walk by faith, not by sight.
Solara: [sighs] What does that mean?
Eli: It means that you know something even if you don't know something.
Solara: That doesn't make any sense.
Eli: It doesn't have to make sense. It's faith, it's faith. It's the flower of light in the field of darkness that's giving me the strength to carry on. You understand?
Solara: Is that from your book?
Eli: No, it's, uh, Johnny Cash, Live at Folsom Prison.
