When you realize that there's a name and a description for this condition that you thought was insanity, you've identified the problem, and now you can do something about it. Anthony Kiedis
I came to realize that life lived to help others is the only one that matters and that it sis my duty ... This is my highest and best use as a human. Ben Stein

Her eyes went wide, and she didn't kiss him back, but the feel of her lips shocked him into realizing what he had done. Oh. Sorry," he said. She laughed. "Forgiven. Terry Goodkind
I gradually realized that I was seeing another example of creative ebb, another step by another art on the road that may indeed end in extinction. Stephen King
This is a book for every fiddler who has realized halfway through playing an ancient Scottish air that the Ramones "I Wanna Be Sedated" is what folk music is really all about, and gone straight into it. Neil Gaiman
