Today’s STATUS QUOtes

 

“The truth doesn’t hurt unless it ought to.” — Bertie Charles Forbes

“In my heart I had the thorn of a passion. I managed to take it off one day. I no longer feel my heart.” — Antonio Machado

“The concept of best-friendship is responsible for the worst birthday party of my life. I was 11 and hosting a sleepover. We were all having fun, eating pizza and comparing our Beanie Babies—until someone referred to someone else as her best friend. Suddenly, we were at war.” — Jaya Saxena
