Answer 9

www.quotegarden.com    I find that is a good site... There are also a lot of Grey's Anatomy quotes, where Meredith (the protagonist) is narrating...

"And, if we're lucky, we realize in the face of everything, in the face of life, the true dream is being able to dream at all."

"Some wounds we carry with us everywhere and though the cut's long gone, the pain still lingers."

"Still, the expected is just the beginning, the unexpected is what changes our lives."

"Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us can want, is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go."

"That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the h**l out of never trying."

"Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate."

Hope you find these helpful...
