- Maybe relax and try again later
Hey you! Are you typing non stop but still stuck on your WPM? Why not stop for a while and take a walk outside? Scientific studies show that the human brain is super elastic. When you practice typing, your brain works hard on processing all kinds of information, then if you take a rest, it will have the chance to sort out and digest previous experiences, therefore rewire and improve itself. It's kinda like a spring, you stretch it, and relax it. Over stretching only does more harm than good.

- Pain
Whatever pain you think you are in right now cannot begin to compare to the peace that will one day come over you. It cannot begin to compare to the joy that you will one day know. You will fall in love with life again, and it will be better than it was before, because you will become a different person. You will become someone who is more capable of appreciating what matters, who will not be as reckless with their choices, who can no longer be so easily swayed or mindlessly trusting.

I DON'T TALK TRASH; I TALK SMACK. THEY'RE TOTALLY DIFFERENT. TRASH TALK IS HYPOTHETICAL LIKE YOUR MOM IS SO FAT SHE CAN EAT THE INTERNET. BUT SMACK TALK IS HAPPENING LIKE RIGHT NOW. LIKE: YOU'RE UGLY, AND I KNOW IT FOR A FACT 'CAUSE I GOT THE EVIDENCE RIGHT THERE.

Every time we eat, we have the power to radically transform the world we live in and simultaneously contribute to addressing many of the most pressing issues that our species currently faces: climate change, infectious disease, chronic disease, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Every single day, our choices can help alleviate all of these problems or they can perpetuate them.

- The Song of Achilles
In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.

- Blood Meridian
The man who believes that the secrets of the world are forever hidden lives in mystery and fear. Superstition will drag him down. The rain will erode the deeds of his life. But that man who sets himself the task of singling out the thread of order from the tapestry will by the decision alone have taken charge of the world and it is only by such taking charge that he will effect a way to dictate the terms of his own fate.

- All Things End
When people say that something is forever, either way, it ends. And all things end. All that we intend is scrawled in sand. Or slips right through our hands. And just knowing that everything will end should not change our plans when we begin again.

Hi, I'm Rashed I'm 15 years old, and I just want to tell myself by publishing this quote that I can go to any college if I study hard enough. Hopefully...

- Good Person
Even a good person can be swept up with the sentiments of a crowd and come to hold perverse beliefs. You can destroy those who speak the truth, but you cannot destroy the truth itself.

- Princess Bride
That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying "As you wish," what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day she realized she truly loved him back.

- Astronants
The word "astronaut" derives from the Greek words meaning "star" and "sailor." These men and women - Alan Shephard, John Glenn, Jr., Sally Ride, to name a few - conjure up images of bravery and adventure. They are modern heroes, helping humanity reach for the stars. When the space program began in 1959, there were only seven such people in the entire country. They all were then - or had been in the past - in the armed forces.

- Chainsaw Man
World War II, Arnolone Syndrome, SOA, AIDS, Nuclear Weapons, the Mt. Hio eruption. All of these once existed and were feared just as much as devils with their names. But I'm the only one who remembers those names now... The sixth sense humans used to have. The light of a certain star that would break children's minds. Four possible fates besides death at the end of life. They've all ceased to exist, and I can't recall them yet even now I remember the sight of their devils fighting Chainsaw Man.

I can. And there's your first marvel, that I can. You have made your magic now, for now I do think I see some shred of goodness in John Proctor. Not enough to weave a banner with, but white enough to keep it from such dogs. Give them no tear! Tears pleasure them! Show honor now, show a stony heart and sink them with it!

It is ironic that we believe that empathy and complex emotions only really exist in humans but we then fail to empathize with the animals who suffer at our hands.

- We're glad you're there
By considering average life expectancy and the typical number of jokes a person hears in a year: If you are under the age of 38, odds are the funniest joke you will ever hear is a joke you haven't even heard yet. And if you are over the age of 38, odds are you already know a joke that, to more people than you could possibly meet, might be the funniest joke they will ever hear. So wherever you are, we're glad you're there.

The layout of my room is fairly straightforward, which is actually a bad thing. Since my room is small it limits my bed and table placement. You walk in and immediately see the bed facing the mirror of my closet, which is fixed, it is immovable. Next to my bed is my table. The head of my bed is directly to the window and beside my bed is another window. Now you're probably thinking, isn't it bad? Yes I searched online and I will probably have 10 years of bad luck now (that's a joke)

- End of Summer
Summer ends and we wonder where you are, and there you go, my friends, with your boxes in your car. You both look so young, and last night was hard. You said you packed up every room and then you cried and went to bed. But today you closed the door and said you have to get a move on. It's just that time of year when we push ourselves ahead. We push ourselves ahead.

Achilles' eyes were bright in the firelight, his face drawn sharply by the flickering shadows. I would know is in dark or disguise, told myself. I would know it even in madness.

- Hold me Up
Hold me up, in the palm of your hand. Lying to you is a river of sin. Your metaphors, your silent calls, your feelings are too real. Let them spew, a fall from grace would do us good today. I'll lift you up, we can love or cry. Hey, I'm in love, I'll take you up again.
Philip Quast - Les Miserables
- Stars
Stars, in your multitudes. Scarce to be counted, filling the darkness with order and light. You are the sentinels, silent and sure. Keeping watch in the night. Keeping watch in the night. You know your place in the sky. You hold your course and your aim. And each in your season returns and returns, and is always the same. And if you fall as Lucifer fell, you fall in flames!
