- Jewel (paraphrasing Plato)
Your life becomes what you believe.
- Jewel
In silence you hear who you are becoming.
You create yourself.
- Jewel
Reality is what you believe it to be.
It's what you put your thought and energy into,
because your hands physically manifest thought.
So your world becomes what you feel and what you think.
- Jewel
Innocence isn't ever lost completely;
we just need to maintain our goodness to regain it.

In case you failed to notice,
in case you failed to see,
this is my heart,
bleeding before you,
this is me down on my knees.

I will gather myself around my faith,
for light does the darkness most fear.

The refinement of your soul through time.

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,
and not to worry cause worry is wasteful

I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair,
I will gather myself around my faith.
Light does the darkness most fear.
- Jewel
Forgiveness is the needle that knows how to mend.

Fill your life with love and bravery,
and you shall live a life uncommon.

I'm having a bad day. I am not size six.
My legs are not skinny as sticks,
and dammit, someone's got to pay.

and that my happiness depends on someone else.

You're so shallow.

I love the contradictions of people

Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their home.
- Jewel
We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.
If you think like that, you surround yourself with
other people who are willing to tell you who you are,
which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.
- Jewel
The things you fear are undefeatable,
not by their nature, but by your approach.
- Jewel
Gather yourself by the sea shore and I will love you there.
Assemble yourself with wild things,
with songs of the sparrow and sea-foam.
Let mad beauty collect itself in your eyes
and it will shine - Calling me.
For I long for a man with nests of wild things in his hair.
A man who will Kiss the Flame.
- Jewel
I get bored very easily, ...
I have a voracious appetite and I do not feel alive
if I'm repeating something I'm good at.
So I'm always looking for new challenges.

I have this theory - that if we're told we're bad,
then that's the only ideal we'll ever have.
- Jewel
You always feel better when you sing.
Music touches people's hearts.
You know, it doesn't go through your mental capacity,
it just moves you and it will let you cry.
It's worth it doing a show
and when you touch a crowd
and move yourself at the same
- Jewel
There are people selling thoughtlessness with such casualty.
- Jewel
People living their lives for you on TV;
They say they're better than you, and you agree.
- Jewel
You have to realize: OK, I don't know how
to solve a political problem,
I don't know how to solve the pollution problem...
all I know is in my own life,
I need to figure out some sense of purpose,
I need to figure out how to be happy...
and I'm willing.

Life should not be a journey to the grave

and loudly proclaiming, "Wow! What a Ride!"
- Hunter S. Thompson
I ride my blue polka-dot horse through the byways of life.

There is no doubt that life can be a bumpy ride.
But so were those roller coasters you loved as a kid.
Savor the adventure.
Find excitement in the uncertainty and the constant change.
Even let a touch of fear add spice to your life -
as you did on that roller coaster.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability,
but comes through continuous struggle.
And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom.

Trust:
Perhaps you trust your doctor,
your lawyer, your boss - perhaps not.
Perhaps you trust in a "Higher Power" - perhaps you don't.
Trust is something that we become aware of in unusual situations,
such as a once-in-a-lifetime ride on a zip-line,
but most of the time, we become oblivious
to the trust we have, or don't have.
