This quote will always be dear to my heart, as will this movie. It truly made me re-evaluate what love is.

The first time I saw this, I'd been battling migraine-like pain for a decade with no diagnosis. Now, I'm in the same predicament, but this quote keeps me from losing it. I literally had it put on a mug two Christmases ago to remind me.

What Clarence writes for George at the end of the film always reminds me that, even at your lowest point in life, you always have friends to help you out and get you back on your feet again. And that is always something worth celebrating.

"I care. I care a lot. It's kinda my thing."—Parks and Recreation
Most of what Leslie Knope said on the show made me want stand up and cheer, but this runs through my mind whenever someone makes me feel like I'm being too passionate about something. Instead of feeling bad, I just think of this.

"In your place, if there is pain, nurse it. And if there is a flame, don’t snuff it out. Don’t be brutal with it. We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster, that we go bankrupt by the age of thirty and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to make yourself feel nothing so as not to feel anything...what a waste."—Call Me By Your Name
So depressing, yet so true and inspiring.

"And I swear, in that moment, we were infinite."—Perks of Being a Wallflower
I read the book before the movie came out, so it was already moving and meaningful to me, but seeing it on film made it especially real. The car driving through the tunnel, the city lights, everyone laughing, the music cranked up...they perfectly illustrated the feeling of youth and uncertainty and adventure.
