if you know ANY of them and who said them or what they are, please tell me!

1.It's probably a better think to think of ways that you could be a help to your community, state, and even country, rather than always think of ways that the government and all the people around you should be helping you, instead.

2.When it comes to falling in love, and when it comes to fighting, there really are no rules.

3.We really don't have to be scared of anything in this world, accept, of course, the actualy idea of being scared, when you think about it.

4.It didnt just take one 24 hour period to erect the captital city of Italy, you know.

5. When I really think about it, I guess it's more than wheather you follow the rules of the game, whether you have the right moves, whether you have the right attitude, and other related factors of this, and not really wheather you come out the victor, or if you are defeated, instead.

6. Proceed, if you will, and give me a reason to find satisfaction in my day.

7.After today, there's still another day to look forward to, with maybe a few opportunities for a better time here and there.

8. Children of a young age are better off when they make themselves visible to people around, but practice the art of staying quiet at them same time.

9. Be careful, because everything that has a pretty, shiny, look to it isnt necessairly alll that vaulable in the first place.
