Quotes have a lot of power. Whether it's a passage from a book, lyrics in a song, a line from your favorite movie, or some words of inspiration from your hero, they're words that can stick with you. They strike a chord in you that make that person, production, or song feel relatable. Below are a couple of quotes that I hope will help you to realize that through whatever struggle you're battling, you're not alone. You can conquer anything that comes your way.

When life doesn't feel like it's working in your favor:

"This above all: To thine own self, be true." - Shakespeare

"One day, they'll realize they lost a diamond while playing with worthless stones." - Turcois Ominek
"It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on." - Nicholas Sparks
"I think it's very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not be defined by another person." - Oscar Wilde
"As time goes by, we start to see more clearly and are able to see that it wasn't all bad and that perhaps just perhaps the breakup was a gift." - Osayi Osar-Emokpae

When tragedy strikes:

"This world may bring deep darkness, but we are the bearers of light. We'll join our flames together and shine in the blackest of nights." - John Mark Green
"Tragedy is a tool for the living to gain wisdom, not a guide by which to live." - Robert Kennedy

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
