Keep Calm, and College On. : Don't Conspire, Inspire.

"Don't ever let somebody tell you you can't do something.You gotta dream, you gotta protect it. People can't do something themselves,they wanna tell you you can't do it. You want something, go get it. Period."--The Pursuit of Happyness

Words can make a difference, you can be the difference.

Remember to speak kind words.

"Splendid, isn't it? The way they move, full of strength, color and grace. They're astounding. But you? Cursed from birth, a man--if you can even call him that, who god himself has turned his back upon."

"Stop it. Why would you say that?"

"Because you believe it. But if you could only see the beauty that can come from ashes."

"But they're different from me."

"Yes, you do have an advantage. The greater the struggle, the more glorious the triumph."

--The Butterfly Circus

"And now, my son, I trust that I shall have great joy in you, because of your steadiness and your faithfulness unto God; for as you have commenced in your youth to look to the Lord your God, even so I hope that you will continue in keeping his commandments; for blessed is he that endureth to the end." -Alma 38:2

"It is scary to know how many girls have eating disorders. It is scary to know people are just angry at life because of their situation at home, and angry at others. Its scary to know how many people actually feel like they're worth nothing. Every single girl right here right now, I want you to know that you are beautiful. You are gorgeous just the way you are. And you boys, you the man."
