"There is nothing wrong with avoiding people..." - Quote by Taylor Swift

“Just be yourself, there is no one better.”

“As soon as I accomplish one goal, I replace it with another one. I try not to get too far ahead of myself. I just say to myself, 'All right, well, I'd like to headline a tour,' and then when I get there, we'll see what my next goal is.”

“It's important to be self-aware about what people are saying about you, but even more so, be very aware of who you actually are, and to have that be the main priority.”

“Being able to write becomes a kind of shield, a way of hiding, a way of too instantly transforming pain into honey.”

“but i've slammed the door to my inner self; if he ever wants to force the lock again, he'll have to use a harder crowbar!”

“Yet, I didn't understand that she was intentionally disguising her feelings with sarcasm; that was usually the last resort of people who are timid and chaste of heart, whose souls have been coarsely and impudently invaded; and who, until the last moment, refuse to yield out of pride and are afraid to express their own feelings to you.”

“When you take the problems of the world on your shoulders, your body doesn't feel good. It's just that simple. Leave the problems of the world to the individual problem-makers of the world, and you be the joy-seeker that you are.”

“Nor eye in a letter, nor hand in a purse, nor ear in the secret of another.”

“If I raised my hand to wipe the hair out of my children's eyes, they'd flinch and call their attorney.”
