I Demand Euphoria!

i'm not interested in money.
i just want to be wonderful.
[When girls are at] that great age, where you’re not boy-crazy and you’re not mean to other girls. You really believe you can be an astronaut, a physicist, a waitress, a singer, a dancer. The world is your oyster. So that enthusiasm I find fascinating. I just wish you could bottle it and take it like a pill. When no one’s told you “no” yet. No one’s told you you’re not good enough, or no boy has broken your heart yet. - Amy Poehler

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (via hi-its-jess)
