“Don’t cry for a man who’s left you—the next one may fall for your smile.”
—Mae West (via kari-shma)
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (via hi-its-jess)
