Citizen
- I'm sick of waiting
I don't give enough to take back what I own. My stories are told out of broken homes. I could be a bit better if I killed all these ghosts. I'm alone. I'll bleed from either side, and I won't tell anyone. Nowhere to hide, but I couldn't care at all. And I'm just a liar, who's tired of trying. I'll pick myself apart, 'cause I couldn't care at all.
Motionless in White
- Werewolf
I could be up all night but I'm paralyzed when the creature comes alive. I don't want to feel. I could be honest. I could be human. I could become the silver bullet in your head. But you can't break my heart like I can.

- Facts
I walked over to you with confidence, with my head held high, but deep inside I wanted to cry. You completely wrecked my life but I can never let you know how much you hurt me because I don't want to give you the satisfaction. That's why I plaster on the smile and let the achievements in my life bring you down because you know that I'll always be a million times better than you.
The Sibley Field Guide to Birds of Western North America
- Horned Lark
Common in expansive open areas with barren or only sparsely vegetated ground such as beaches, plowed fields, and edges of airport runways. Usually in flocks of up to hundreds, often mixed with longspurs or Snow Bunting. Feeds on seeds and insects gleaned from low vegetation or the ground. Size and color reminiscent of sparrows; note short-legged crouching posture, relatively brown plumage, bold face pattern with dark mask, and dark breast-band. In flight, note long wings and short square tail.
Malcolm X
- By Any Means Necessary
We declare our right on this earth to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this Earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary.

- La Haine - It's Not How You Fall
Heard about the guy who fell off a skyscraper? On his way down past each floor, he kept saying to reassure himself: So far so good... so far so good... so far so good. How you fall doesn't matter. It's how you land!
Michael Parenti
- Against Empire
The essence of capitalism is to turn nature into commodities and commodities into capital. The live green earth is transformed into dead gold bricks, with luxury items for the few and toxic slag heaps for the many. The glittering mansion overlooks a vast sprawl of shanty towns, wherein a desperate, demoralized humanity is kept in line with drugs, television, and armed force.
Rent The Musical
- Over the Moon - Maureen
Last night, I had a dream. I found myself in a desert called Cyberland. It was hot, my canteen had sprung a leak and I was thirsty. Out of the abyss walked a cow - Elsie. She said, "I am forbidden to produce milk. In Cyberland we only drink Diet Coke." She said, "Only thing to do is jump over the moon."

- No Love At First Sight
I do not believe in love at first sight. If you fall in love with someone as soon as you meet them. You don't know anything about them, so how do you know you love them? How do you know they are a good person? I believe that you have to get to know someone before you can declare that you love them.

- To the "Metacognition is overrated quote"
If you've been on this site often enough, you'll see a quote talking about how metacognition is overrated.. I have to say, I disagree with that notion is overrated. Sure if you give the analogy that we don't need to think about our own thoughts as much as we don't need to bite our teeth while we're trying to eat, metacognition sounds dumb. But I feel like in that thought process lacks nuance, metacognition is the tool that we use for reflection. It's what we use to learn from past mistakes.

- Is everyone depressed?
I honestly think everyone is depressed. Anytime I come on here just to waste time, I get very interesting quotes. Possibly, it might be time to look for help.
Matthew Stover
- Love can Ignite the Stars
The dark is generous and it is patient and it always wins. But in the heart of its strength lies its weakness: one lone candle is enough to hold it back. Love is more than a candle. Love can ignite the stars.
Bojack Horseman
- Downer Ending
And I don't... actually even care what the world thinks about me anymore. I just hated reading that book because I hated feeling like that's how you saw me. Because I guess you know me better than anybody, if you think that. Um, I-I guess my question is do you... do you think it's too late for me?

Set It Off
- So Predictable
From sunrise to sunset, from death then to taxes, somehow they remind me of you. The day comes and goes, some things we'll never know but the monster of habit is you. I've heard this all before don't act like you are not so predictable. You're playing on a loop repeat, repeat, rewind.
Suzanne Collins
- Mockingjay- Katniss talking about Prim
She's really gone, then. The little girl with the back of her shirt sticking out like a duck tail. The one who needed help reaching the dishes, and who begged to see the frosted cakes in the bakery window. Time and tragedy have forced her to grow too quickly, at least for my taste, into a young woman who stitches bleeding wounds and knows our mother can hear only so much.
TXT (TOMORROW X TOGETHER)
- Skipping Stones
We love throwing irregular stones into the calm river. Even though we know it's a painful time period, we grab another stone. I'm curious, what feelings are you going through when you throw yourself?

Cristina Yang
- You are the Sun
Cristina Yang once said "You are a gifted surgeon with an extraordinary mind," Cristina said, "Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He's very dreamy, but he is not the sun. You are."
Sakata Gintoki (Gintama)
Trying to shoulder the burden all by yourself? Don't be a stranger. Weep and ask for help. Lean on me with your runny nose. Cry when you feel like crying. Laugh when you feel like laughing. When you're tearing up with an ugly face, I'll give you a good cry with an uglier face. When you're laughing so hard your stomach hurts, I'll laugh in a louder voice. That's how it should be. It's far better to get dirty while living true to yourself, than to throw away yourself and die a clean death.
