Problems, Troubles, Issues Quotes

What you can't get out of, get into wholeheartedly.

The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.

Responsibility

Sometimes we want to hide from ourselves — we do not want to be us — it is too difficult to be us. It is at these times that we turn to drugs or alcohol or behavior to help us forget that we are ourselves. This of course is only a temporary solution to a problem which is going to keep returning, and sometimes these temporary solutions are worse for us than the original problem. Yes, it is a dilemma.

Life Quotes

War is only a cowardly escape from the problems of peace.

Hakuna matata.
You know, kid, these two words will solve all your problems!

Or you can get to work. That's all it is. You just begin. You do the math. You solve one problem... Then you solve the next one. And then the next.

You feel the need to find some answers,

I don't want to be a genius — I have enough problems just trying to be a man.

The struggles I'm facin’
The chances I'm taking

But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most yeah
Just gotta keep going

— Are you aware of the side effects?
— I was told there's nothing to be concerned about. Blurred vision, constipation, dry eyes, dry nose, dry mouth, difficulty urinating. Nothing to be concerned about. Tardive dyskinesia. Tardive dyskinesia, a permanent twitching of the facial muscles.

Trouble shared is trouble halved.
