1 I think the thing to do is enjoy the ride while you’re on it. -Johnny Depp
Life is short. It ends when you least expect it to. So the only thing we can do is to enjoy life while we can. Be crazy, be insane, follow your heart, and learn to love.
2 People cry not because they’re weak, it’s because they’ve been strong for too long. -Johnny Depp
Crying does not mean we are weak. All it means is that we have been too strong for far too long. We have to be honest with ourselves, let our heart out and cry if need be because sometimes that’s all the therapy we need to bounce back again.
3 We should question ourselves before we pass judgement on someone who looks different, behaves different, talks different, is a different color. -Johnny Depp
Different isn’t always bad. People are different because our society is diverse. Just because someone looks, behaves, or simply is different from us does not mean that we have the right to bully them.
4 Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. -Johnny Depp
Live life happily. Laugh as much as you can. Smile constantly. And most importantly love others selflessly.
5 We’re all damaged in our own way, Nobody’s perfect, I think we’re all somewhat screwy, Every single one of us. -Johnny Depp
We’re all imperfect and broken. We all have scars from our past that we carry with us. No one is perfect. We’re all screwed up in our own ways.
6 You can close your eyes to the things you don’t want to see, but you can’t close your heart to the things you don’t want to feel. -Johnny Depp
We can shut our eyes to the things that we want to avoid. But feelings are completely different. No matter how much we try, there are some things we cannot avoid. You will have to confront those feelings no matter what.
7 There’s a drive in me that won’t allow me to do certain things that are easy. -Johnny Depp
Do not get into the habit of doing those things that seem easy. There should be a fire within you to try things that are challenging and difficult. If you only do things within your comfort zone, you will never grow.
8 One day the people that didn’t believe in you will tell everyone how they met you. -Johnny Depp
The only answer that you should give your haters is your success. Let them see how far you have come while they remember how much they tried to pull you down.
9 It hurts so much to want something you can’t have. – Johnny Depp
Sometimes, our hearts want things that are impossible. No matter how much we try, we’ll never get them. And that’s what hurts the most, when you realise that you will have to live with that emptiness within you.
10 Do what you really want to do, Don’t play their game, Don’t do what they want, Find your own way. –Johnny Depp
Don’t let the world tell you what you should and should not do. It’s your life and you have the right to decide how it should turn out. Do not play their game. Do what you want to do, not what they think you should do.
11 I think everybody’s weird, We should celebrate our individuality and not be embarrassed or ashamed of it. –Johnny Depp
No two people in this world are the same. We’re all different people with different values, ideas, and dreams. And we should own up to it – accept our individuality and flaunt it like we mean it.
12 Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing the enthusiasm. -Johnny Depp
The road to success is full of failures. But only those who move forward and persevere can ever get to the end. That’s what sets the great ones apart from the rest.
13 Success doesn’t change you, it reveals you. –Johnny Depp
Success reveals the kind of person you are. If one becomes worse, all that means is that they were that way even before they reached there. Success only multiplies what’s already in there.
14 You can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest, Honestly, It’s the honest ones you have to watch out for. –Johnny Depp
Sometimes, it’s the good ones who end up hurting you the most. It’s they who will stab you from the back and leave you bleeding. You can always expect your enemies to hurt you, but never your friends and that’s what hits the hardest.
15 Love is not blind, It simply enables one to see things others fail to see. –Johnny Depp
Love gives you a new perspective to life. You learn to see things that others fail to see. Your entire approach to life changes and it feels as though everything around you has changed for the better.

Indeed Jack was right about it. There comes a phase when people must accept and acknowledge their mistakes, even the worst ones.

Reality has always been twisted. It was never simple in the first place. That’s why it’s always tough to accept it.

We relate to this dialogue don’t we? We can’t close our hearts to the things we don’t want to feel. There is not an on and off switch. Human emotions are much more complicated than that.
25 Breathe. It’s only a bad day, not a bad life.
This is the line we all want to hear after a bad day. It’s just a bad day which shall pass.
