Quotes

Forgive but dont forget, girl keep your head up. And when he tells you you aint nothing, dont believe him. And if he cant learn to love you, you should leave him. You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what couldve, wouldve happenedor you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the f* on.

Im not sayin Im gonna rule the world, or that Im gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world. Wars come and go, but my soldiers stay eternal. Only God can judge me.
