Inspirational Quotes
When Forever Becomes A Place…

One Of The Great Liabilities…
“One of the great liabilities of history is that all too many people fail to remain awake through great periods of social change.

Not My Vibe, Not My Tribe
“Politeness is wiped clean. Good manners; washed away with the high tide. When you allow anger to fuel you, it is YOU who #LevelsUp. It is you who says, “Fuck you.” to those who hate you because of how strongly others love you. It is you who doesn’t become ugly, bitter, cruel, evil, hateful, or alone. Because YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. You’re better than the bullshit, the lies, the unfairness. You’re superior. You still have the ability to grow and to put a stop to things that do NOT serve your soul.”
