"Les yeux de ce mystérieux animal qui, dans chaque prunelle, a la profondeur et les étoiles d'un coin de ciel." - Armand Silvestre
Translation : "The eyes of this mysterious animal who, in each one of the apples of his eyes, has the deepness and the stars of a corner of the sky." (while talking about cats, obviously)
"I have forgiven mistakes that were indeed almost unforgivable. I’ve tried to replace people who were irreplaceable and tried to forget those who were unforgettable. I’ve acted on impulse, have been disappointed by people when I thought that this could never be possible. But I have also disappointed those who I love. I have laughed at inappropriate occasions. I’ve made friends that are now friends for life. I’ve screamed and jumped for joy.
I’ve loved and I’ve been loved. But I have also been rejected, and I have been loved without loving the person back. I’ve lived for love alone and made vows of eternal love. I’ve had my heart broken many, many times ! I’ve cried while listening to music and looking at old pictures. I’ve called someone just to hear their voice on the other side. I have fallen in love with a smile. At times, I thought I would die because I missed someone so much. At other times, I felt very afraid that I might lose someone very special (which ended up happening anyway).
But I have lived ! And I still continue living everyday. I’m not just passing through life... and you shouldn’t either. Live ! The best thing in life is to go ahead with all your plans and your dreams, to embrace life and to live everyday with passion, to lose and still keep the faith and to win while being grateful. All of this because the world belongs to those who dare to go after what they want. And because life is really too short to be insignificant." - Charlie Chaplin
"There was once a very great American surgeon named Halsted. He was married to a nurse. He loved her immeasurably. One day Halsted noticed that his wife's hands were chapped and red when she came back from surgery. And so he invented rubber gloves. For her. It is one of the great love stories in medicine. The difference between inspired medicine and uninspired medicine is love.
When I met Ana I knew :
I loved her to the point of invention." - Sarah Ruhl (The Clean house)
"Si je recommençais ma vie je tâcherais de faire mes rêves encore plus grands ; parce que la vie est infiniment plus belle et plus grande que je n'avais cru, même en rêve." - Georges Bernanos
Translation : "If I started my life again I would make my dreams even bigger ; because life is infinitely more beautiful and bigger than I imaginated, even in dream".
"Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend you life making someone else's dream ?" - Tim Burton
"À vaincre sans péril, on triomphe sans gloire." - Pierre Corneille

"When you don't have many friends and you don't have a social life you're kind of left looking at things, not doing things. There's a weird freedom in not having people treat you like you're a part of society or where you have to fulfill social relationships." - Tim Burton [Tim you are so talented at quotes omg]
