“Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or ''broken heart,'' is excuse for cutting off one's life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.”
Charlotte P. Gillman
“I'm taking back my freedom! FOR I'M SICK AND TIRED OF LIVING LIFE UNDER YOUR WINGS! I'm breaking lose, to be FREE. Free from all the harm and all the mental scars. I choose freedom over any fear or any pain. For I know the outside world awaits with open arms and loving hearts. And now I will salute you and let you know, that is time for me to go. Time for us to part our ways, I now welcome the joy of this brand new day... With that being said, I'm moving forward...”
Philip T. M.
“It is wrong to think that misfortunes come from the east or from the west; they originate within one's own mind. Therefore, it is foolish to guard against misfortunes from the external world and leave the inner mind uncontrolled.”
Buddha
“One should go invited to a friend in good fortune, and uninvited in misfortune”
