I've been collecting quotes for months now, because sometimes things I feel I can't put into words, but someone else can. I've been going through a lot of personal growth recently, and while some of these quotes made me realize things I didn't want to confront, they also helped give me the power to truly makes large steps in moving on.

With whatever you're going through, these quotes can apply to it, and I hope they help you as they've helped me.
