    William W. Purkey
    “You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,

    Sing like there's nobody listening,
    And live like it's heaven on earth.”
    William W. Purkey

  • #2
    Bernard M. Baruch

    Bernard M. Baruch

  • #3
    J.K. Rowling
    “If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

    Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another What! You
    “Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
    C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

  • #6
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline
    “The worst part is wondering how you’ll find the strength tomorrow to go on doing what you did today and have been doing for much too long, where you’ll find the strength for all that stupid running around, those projects that come to nothing, those attempts to escape from crushing necessity, which always founder and serve only to convince you one more time that destiny is implacable, that every night will find you down and out, crushed by the dread of more and more sordid and insecure tomorrows. And maybe it’s treacherous old age coming on, threatening the worst. Not much music left inside us for life to dance to. Our youth has gone to the ends of the earth to die in the silence of the truth. And where, I ask you, can a man escape to, when he hasn’t enough madness left inside him? The truth is an endless death agony. The truth is death. You have to choose: death or lies. I’ve never been able to kill myself.”
    Louis-Ferdinand Celine

  • #7
    Steve Maraboli
    “Your fear is 100% dependent on you for its survival.”
    Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

  • #8
    Octavia E. Butler
    “To survive,
    Let the past
    Teach you--
    Past customs,
    Struggles,
    Leaders and thinkers.
    Let
    These
    Help you.
    Let them inspire you,
    Warn you,
    Give you strength.
    But beware:
    God is Change.
    Past is past.
    What was
    Cannot
    Come again.

    To survive,
    know the past.
    Let it touch you.
    Then let
    The past
    Go.”
    Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents

  • #9
    Edward St. Aubyn
    “No pain is too small if it hurts, but any pain is too big if it's cherished.”
    Edward St. Aubyn

  • #10
    Elizabeth Scott
    “The thing about hearts is that they always want to keep beating”
    Elizabeth Scott, Living Dead Girl

  • #11
    Chris Cleave
    “A scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived.”
    Chris Cleave, Little Bee

  • #12
    “Eliminate the concept of division by class, skills, race, income, and nationality. We are all equals with a common pulse to survive. Every human requires food and water. Every human has a dream and desire to be happy. Every human responds to love, suffering and pain. Every human bleeds the same color and occupies the same world. Let us recognize that we are all part of each other. We are all human. We are all one.”
    Suzy Kassem

  • #13
    “For there to be harmony and peace, everything must be balanced. And for there to be balance, there must be equality. And where there is equality, there will be justice. And where justice is honored and preserved, there will always be truth. Eliminate the concept of division by class, skills, race, income, and nationality. We are all equals with a common pulse to survive. Every human requires food and water. Every human has a dream and desire to be happy. Every human responds to love, suffering and pain. Every human bleeds the same color and occupies the same world. Let us recognize that we are all part of each other. We are all human. We are all one.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

  • #14
    David Attenborough
    “‎Using his burgeoning intelligence, this most successful of all mammals has exploited the environment to produce food for an ever increasing population. Instead of controlling the environment for the benefit of the population, perhaps it's time we controlled the population to allow the survival of the environment.”
    David Attenborough

  • #15
    Margaret Atwood
    “Life is warped. I'm just in sync.”
    Margaret Atwood, MaddAddam

  • #16
    Chanel Miller
    “I always like to say "be the Swede". Show up for the vulnerable, do your part, help each other and face the darkest parts alongside survivors.”
    Chanel Miller

  • #17
    Albert Einstein
    “We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.”
    Albert Einstein

  • #18
    “THREE BASIC TRUTHS

    Three things have a limited threshold:
    Time, pain, and death.
    While truth, love, and knowledge –
    Are boundless.

    Three things are needed
    For humanity to co-exist:
    Truth, peace and basic needs.
    Everything else -
    Is irrelevant.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

  • #19
    Richard Matheson
    “The foraging for food and water, the struggle for life in a world without masters, housed in a body that man had made dependent on himself.”
    Richard Matheson, I Am Legend and Other Stories

  • #20
    Rae Armantrout
    “Simple


    Complex systems can arise
    from simple rules.

    It's not
    that we want to survive,
    it's that we've been drugged
    and made to act
    as if we do

    while all the while
    the sea breaks
    and rolls, painlessly, under.

    If we're not copying it,
    we're lonely.

    Is this the knowledge
    that demands to be
    passed down?

    Time is made from swatches
    of heaven and hell.

    If we're not killing it,
    we're hungry.”
    Rae Armantrout, Versed

  • #21
    John Banville
    “The secret of survival is a defective imagination.”
    John Banville, The Infinities

  • #22
    Nick Lake
    “He held his head, and he cried for them, and he did not melt into the sea but sat, aching, in the glowing moonlight-for in the end our bodies know only how to carry on surviving.

    That is our strength, and our tragedy.”
    Nick Lake

  • #23
    Sarah Noffke
    “No one ever told me how sorrow traumatizes your heart, making you think it will never beat exactly the same way again. No one ever told me how grief feels like a wet sock in my mouth. One I’m forced to breathe through, thinking that with each breath I’ll come up short and suffocate.”
    Sarah Noffke, Awoken

  • #24
    “My heart had been touched by him, battered by him, cradled by him as the days passed. He was cruel without meaning to be yet he was kind, and I needed him too much to let myself want him”
    Mackenzie Herbert, Chasing Trains

  • #25
    Jeffrey Eugenides
    “He remained heartbroken, which meant one of two things: either his love was pure and true and earthshakingly significant; or he was addicted to feeling forlorn, he liked being heartbroken.”
    Jeffrey Eugenides, The Marriage Plot

  • #26
  • #27
    Mike  Norton
    “Mastering the art of seduction gives one a great power, and like any power, it's to be wielded with responsibility; a man who wields the art of seduction without a sense of responsibility and restraint is a walking proximity bomb of viral epidemics, needless procreation, heartbroken families, and shattered dreams.”
    Mike Norton

  • #28
    Ruth Boukhari
    “My never-ending pursuit of pain-avoidance
    ultimately leads
    to replacing one hurt with another.
    Unruly pleasure
    leads to bitter rage.
    And these lessons I cannot learn
    from beloveds who become
    so cavalier.”
    Ruth Boukhari, Forlorn

  • #29
    Amit Kalantri
    “In pleasure we only feel the music, in pain we also feel the lyrics.”
    Amit Kalantri, Wealth of Words

  • #30
    Caroline Kepnes
    “You're lucky to get your heart broke. That just means you have a heart.”
    Caroline Kepnes, You Love Me
