In a world where everyone, including ourselves, tells us to be careful, not to try in case we fail, that we might hurt ourselves or we’re not well enough — whether that voice comes from a medical condition, from caring for someone who has one, or from our own harshest critic living inside our heads — sometimes we need reminding that we can fly.
This is that page.
I want this to be a place where everyone can add the quote that moves them, motivates them, or simply gets them through a hard day — so that it might do the same for someone else.
Because we shouldn’t be afraid to fly.

“Well, Eric always dreamed of flying, so maybe if you wish hard enough and love long enough, anything is possible.”
— Mrs. Sherman, The Boy Who Could Fly (1986)
“Give yourself permission to slow down,
– Anonymous
but never give yourself permission to give up”
” Courage doesn’t alway roar.
– Mary Anne Radmacher
Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying
‘I will try again tomorrow.'”
