I do not accept any less than someone just as real, as fabulous!
The real cake isn’t HAVING what you want, it’s DOING what you want.

Reprove your friend in secret and praise him openly.
You were created on purpose for a purpose. There is a thirst and hunger in your heart that is real. Pay attention to it.
Never apologize for what you feel. It’s like being sorry for being real.
Real gs move in silence like lasagna.
Never back down from a real challenge. They give the best lessons in life.
Feudalism made land the measure and the master of all things.
Ink was not invented to express our real feelings.
This sort of adoration of the real is but a heightening of the beau ideal.
