It's thrilling to fight for a love that's entirely unrequited. It might not be much fun. It might leave profound and lasting scars.

In the lives of individuals, just as in society at large, the profoundest changes take place within a very reduced time frame. When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready... The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.

The roller-coaster is my life; life is a fast, dizzying game; life is a parachute jump; it's taking chances, falling over and getting up again; it's mountaineering; it's wanting to get to the very top of yourself and to feel angry and dissatisfied when you don't manage it.

Mereka tidak marah, juga tidak berseru-seru memprotes; mereka sekedar menunggu waktu berlalu. mereka tidak menerima tantangan-tantangan kehidupan, jadi kehidupan pun berhenti memberikan tantangan kepada mereka. Kau juga mengambil resiko yang sama; tunjukkan reaksi, hadapi hidup, tapi jangan berhenti hidup.

Each arrow leaves a memory in your heart, and it is the sum of those memories that will make you shoot better and better.
