“We still have a long way to go. But we are moving in the right direction.

“We have so far to go to realize our human potential for compassion, altruism, and love.”— Jane Goodall, amazon.com

“You're the one who is weak. You'll never know the love of friendship. And I feel sorry for you.”— Harry Potter, amazon.com

“There is a difference between 'committing to the right person while you're young' and 'settling for someone while you're young out of obligation or fear or both.'”— Brianna Wiest, bustle.com
“Sure, as human beings, we all inherently deserve love and respect and kindness, but we don't all get it (and we sure as hell don't all give it). That means you have to take it for yourself. You have to draw your own lines and write your own rules.”— Brianna Wiest, bustle.com
“You can’t just point out some random person and look to them to make you happy. You need a spark. You need that silly grin plastered across your face whenever you think of their name or how you met. You need that rush comes whenever your phone pings and it’s them. You need to date someone who isn’t…”— Jennifer Cie, thoughtcatalog.com
“When you have low self-worth you will love mostly anyone willing to love you, and you often end up settling for less, becoming less and believe less in yourself and in love. To have more you must be committed to being more. Loving yourself attracts someone to love you as you love yourself. It all st…”— Sherrie Campbell, huffingtonpost.com
“Do not settle for anything less than beautiful, unconditional love.”— Tricia Miller, thoughtcatalog.com

There is nothing wrong w…”— Kim Quindlen, thoughtcatalog.com
“Don’t apologize for having high standards. If it makes your road trip to finding love a little bit longer, don’t fret. It’s better to take your time are arrive at the destination you wanted than stop at the first attraction you see along the way and quickly find out it’s not what you hoped for.”— Mike Zacchio, thoughtcatalog.com
“That is not weakness. Experiencing pain because someone you love(d) is no longer a person you can call at 2 AM when you can’t sleep is not weakness. Crying when you come across old photographs and the memories hit you like a slap in the face is not weakness. Missing someone who you cared for is not…”— Ari Eastman, thoughtcatalog.com
“Self-love is necessary because it gives you the tools to survive in this lifetime. And it’s something you can do on your own. You don’t need to depend on anyone else to give you your worth or value.
