10 Times Hank Moody Spoke Undeniable Wisdom

Hank Moody is a washed up author that hasn't penned a word in years. He's plagued by his vices: sex, drugs, alcohol and his self hatred for screwing it up with Karen, the mother of his child. It might look like his life is spiraling out of control, but Hank has seen it all. Not only is he wise, his way with words allows him to deliver his message with poetic prowess.

1) "Teenage girls are greatly overrated."


Who can argue with that?

2) "Whatever you do, don't be another brick in the wall."

Hank Moody was a lot of things, but unoriginal was certainly not one of them.

3) "It's a big, bad world full of twists and turns, and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment, the moment that could have changed everything."

Well I'm ever blinking again.

4) "There's no time like the present."

True that, brotha.

5) "Who says we have to be realistic?"

Who likes the real world anyways?

6) "Things fall apart. They break. That's life."

Everyone takes a little fixin'.

7) "There's no life without love- not one worth having, anyway."

Because if you didn't root for Karen and Hank, you have no heart.

8) "The key is to get to know people and trust them to be who they are. Instead, we trust them to be who we want them to be- and when they're not, we cry."

Hank has certainly shown us that trying to change people can be difficult.

9) "It's possible that longing for something is better than actually having it. I've heard it said that satisfaction is the death of desire."

He even makes depressing things sound good.

10) "Check yourself before you riggity wreck yourself.


Couldn't have said it better myself, Hank.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
