The Best Quotes thread

Welcome to Night Vale has the best quotes. So weird and profound at the same time.

"May you find love. May you find it, wherever it's been hidden. May you find whoever has been hiding it and exact revenge upon them." - Welcome to Night Vale.

tbh that's the best quote about love I've ever heard

"90 percent of your body is water. Six percent is delusion. Four percent is lies." - Welcome to Night Vale

"Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not. We never are, but that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?" - Welcome to Night Vale

"When life seems dangerous and unmanageable, just remember that it is, and that you can't survive forever." - Welcome to Night Vale

and my favourite of all, because it's so entirely true:

"But here is the truth of nostalgia: we don't feel it for who we were, but who we weren't. We feel it for all the possibilities that were open to us, but we didn't take." - Welcome to Night Vales' deep moments.

“People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

~Mother Teresa”
