Quotations and sayings

01Undated

You know all that sympathy that you feel for an abused child who suffers without a good mom or dad to love and care for them? Well, they don't stay children forever. No one magically becomes an adult the day they turn eighteen. Some people grow up sooner, many grow up later. Some never really do. But just remember that some people in this world are older versions of those same kids we cry for.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

02Undated

The end of a relationship is not always a failure. Sometimes all the love in the world is not enough to save something. In these cases, it is not a matter of fault from either person. Some things cannot be, it's as simple as that.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

03Undated

People accuse me of falling in love easily. It just means that I'm able to see the beauty in most of the people who cross paths with me and I appreciate it for what it is and also for what it isn't. Love is imperfect. Falling for someone's flaws is just as necessary as falling for their strengths. And people like myself, who fall into love easily, are sometimes the loneliest souls around at the end of the day.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

04Undated

The more fucked up you are, the more I like you. As long as you've managed to hold onto your identity through all the shit, then it won't matter how twisted you are. I will love you more for it.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

05Undated

We judge others instantly by their clothes, their cars, their appearance, their race, their education, their social status. The list is endless. What gets me is that most people decide who another person is before they have even spoken to them. What's even worse is that these same people decide who someone else is, and don't even know who they are themselves.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

06Undated

People leave imprints on our lives, shaping who we become in much the same way that a symbol is pressed into the page of a book to tell you who it comes from. Dogs, however, leave paw prints on our lives and our souls, which are as unique as fingerprints in every way.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

07Undated

Never try to do anything that is outside of who you are. A forced smile is a sign of what feels wrong in your heart, so recognize it when it happens. Living a lie will reduce you to one.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

08Undated

Never do anything that you can't admit doing, because if you are that ashamed of whatever it is, it's probably wrong.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

09Undated

Everyone lies to themselves, but many people do it with good intentions. They want to believe what they tell themselves, it is oftentimes the best possible version of reality for them. Although it may not be accurate, it is a mural of their desires, aspirations, optimism and passion. These people usually either need time or a new experience to discover the truth. People who lie to themselves for different reasons are oftentimes trying to avoid something or escape blame for things they have done.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

10Undated

You have to believe what you're saying if you're going to convince me. I just can't break that rule, even if I want to.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

11Undated

All we know is what we're told.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

12Undated

It's okay to disagree with the thoughts or opinions expressed by other people. That doesn't give you the right to deny any sense they might make. Nor does it give you a right to accuse someone of poorly expressing their beliefs just because you don't like what they are saying. Learn to recognize good writing when you read it, even if it means overcoming your pride and opening your mind beyond what is comfortable.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

13Undated

I say fuck the old advice 'show, don't tell.' It's called story TELLING for a reason, and I'll stick to it!

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

14Undated

Experience is the opposite of education.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

15Undated

If somebody never gets enough of you, they will always want more

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

16Undated

When you want to share something with another person more than anything, it is one of the most difficult things to realize that you can never have it. Accepting this realization is even more difficult. Loving someone does mean saying goodbye to them in some cases, though we will fight that until the oftentimes bitter end before doing the right thing.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

17Undated

If you're not scared of the dark, it hasn't been dark enough.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

18Undated

If you manage to live long enough, most of your greatest fears become fond memories to look back on.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

19Undated

No one truly knows what they will do in a certain situation until they are actually in it. It's very easy to judge someone else's actions by what you assume your own would be, if you were in their shoes. But we only know what we THINK we would do, not what we WOULD do.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

20Undated

By judging others, you make yourself easy to judge.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

21Undated

The easiest way to gain someone's trust is to deserve it. This should be pretty easy, assuming you're just being you and being real. Minimal effort too.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

22Undated

Some people are as angry as they seem to be only because it's the safest place to hide from more pain.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

23Undated

The world is not ready for some people when they show up, but that shouldn't stop anyone.

Ashly Lorenzana / quote

24Undated

It may be a man's world, but men are easily controlled by women.
