"Happiness is the best revenge. If someone screwed you over, don't get them back. That just means stooping down to their level. Then you become the kind of person you've despised in the first place. Show them how well you can do without them. Be happy and live life like you wanted. Not because someone made you do it, but because you wanted it for you. Do things for yourself, not for other people."
-Unknown

"Remember one thing only: that it's you- nobody else- who determines your destiny and decides your fate. Nobody else can be alive for you; nor can you be alive for anybody else.”
― E.E. Cummings

When you can't run, you crawl. And when you can't crawl, when you can't do that - you find someone to carry you.
- Malcolm Reynolds (Firefly)
