"Write in the book. You own it. " Learned this in college but it works for other things too - paint the walls, put up a shelf, wear your nice clothes anytime. For many, we are made to feel unwelcome as an individual (don't interrupt the adults, don't use That paper use This paper, don't use the fine china, sit and be quiet)

It is okay that you are taking up space. it is okay that other people know you were here. it is okay to put your mark on the world. It is okay to have a voice, a preference, a vibe. Be you.

Just becuase you don't have alot of money doesn't mean you have to look like you don't have alot of money.

Don't stay at the party you received the day of normally full of losers.

You find out who your true friends are in times

Don't hold on to a mistake just because you spent a long time making it.

My Grabdfather held grudges his whole life to the benifit of none so my father always said, “don’t hold grudges, forgive everyone, life’s short”.

If it's stupid and it works it ain't stupid
Don't stick your dick in crazy
Don't piss against the wind
If the shit hits the fan don't stand in front of it

Men are like buses. There'll be another one along in about fifteen minutes.

Feelings are like the wind: They come and go and change direction, so don't act on them immediately.

Always make it to class/work when you can. Skip your days in the spring when the world is waking up and beautiful.

Never eat anything bigger than your head.

In the Chronicles of Narnia, the Magician's Nephew, Aslan says to Digory Kirke, "Let us be good to one another." I read that in Junior High (when I rode a dinosaur to school), and it has stuck with me to this day.

Question everything.

Your mom was right. If they invite you the day of the party it must mean that others have decided not to go and the party planners thought of you only at last minute.

Kiss their ass then slit their throats open.

Never pet a burning dog.

Never lend your friends money.
As a sales rep never talk religion or politics with your customers.

No matter how much money you make, live poor.
