And now I'm looking at you,
he said,
and you're asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the
thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before - bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle
and Alec, but it took years to do it - but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.

Cassandra Clare
I was thinking about the first time I ever saw you,
he said,
and how after that I couldn't forget you. I wanted to, but I
couldn't stop myself. I forced Hodge to let me be the one who came to find you and bring you back to the Institue. And even back then,
in that stupid coffee shop, when I saw you sitting on that couch with Simon, even then that felt wrong to me-- I should have been the
one sitting with you. The one who made you laugh like that. I couldn't get rid of that feeling. That it should have been me. And the
more I knew you, the more I felt it--it had never been like that for me before. I'd always wanted a girl and then gotten to know her and not
wanted her anymore, but with you the feeling just got stronger and stronger until that night when you showed up at Renwick's and I knew.

John C. Maxwell
If you want to become physically stronger, you'll need healthy habits - like going to the gym. You'll also
have to give up unhealthy habits - like eating junk food. Building mental strength requires healthy habits -
like practicing gratitude - while also giving up unhealthy behavior, like giving up after the first failure.
Amy Morin
What I say is that just
or right
means nothing but what is in the interest of the stronger party.
Plato
Between us, love the buses at the door the long glass street two years, my death to yours my death upon your
lips my face becoming glass strong challenged time making me win immortal our street our river a deadly glass to
hold. Now they are feeding me into a steel mill furnace O love the stream of glass a stream of living fire.
The Book of the Dead
