Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
Oscar Wilde
People think dreams aren't real just because they aren't made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they are made of viewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes.
Neil Gaiman
People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn't stop you from having your own opinion.
Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl
You have to accept that sometimes that's how things happen in this world. People's opinions, their feelings, they go one way, then the other. It just so happens you grew up at a certain point in this process.
Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go
So many times people would base their decisions on what their friends say rather than what they want themselves. I'm not saying that friends' opinions are not important, what I'm saying is that no matter what someone says, you will have to live with your decisions at the end of the day, not your friend's.
Don't like gay marriages? Don't get one. Don't like abortions? Don't get one. Don't like sex? Don't have it. Don't like drugs? Don't do them. Don't like porn? Don't watch it. Don't like alcohol? Don't drink it. Don't like your rights taken away? Don't take away someone else's.
