"There is nothing wrong with revenge. The wrong has already been done, or there would be no need to even the score."

"It's okay to disagree with the thoughts or opinions expressed by other people. That doesn't give you the right to deny any sense they might make.

There will never be a time when everyone on this planet agrees on something like that, but luckily that's not important. All that matters is that both sides remain loyal, which they will assuming you continue to be who you are and do your thing. This is all that you need to be immortalized."

"People accuse me of falling in love easily. It just means that I'm able to see the beauty in most of the people who cross paths with me and I appreciate it for what it is and also for what it isn't.

And people like myself, who fall into love easily, are sometimes the loneliest souls around at the end of the day."

"Morality and legality have nothing to do with one another. I'm more than fine with breaking a law if it disagrees with my values and morals."
