“Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the powerful roar of its many waters.”

I swear I am working on what keeps me miles away.

“i’d rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else. i’d rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself. i’d rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart. i’d rather have the one who holds my heart.”
