“Instead, what I was beginning to understand was that however things unfolded from here on, whatever the next chapter was, my life could never be the sum of one circumstance. It would be determined, as it had always been, by my
willingness to put one foot in front of the other, moving forward, come what may.”
~Liz Murray, Breaking Night: A Memior Forgivness, Survival, and My Journey FromHomeless to Harvard
“In the years ahead of me, I learned that the world is actually filled with people ready to tell you how likely something is, and what it means to be realistic. But what I have also learned is that no one, no one truly knows what is possible until they go and do it.”
~Liz Murray, Breaking Night: A Memior Forgivness, Survival, and My Journey FromHomeless to Harvard
“I knew at that moment I had to make a choice... I could submit to everything and live a life of excuses, or I could push myself... I could push myself and make my life good...”
~Liz Murray, Breaking Night: A Memior Forgivness, Survival, and My Journey From Homeless to Harvard
“'Homeless person or business person, doctor or teacher, whatever your background may be, the same holds true for each of us: life takes on the meaning that you give it.”
~Liz Murray, Breaking Night: A Memior Forgivness, Survival, and My Journey From Homeless to Harvard
“I said to myself: what if I woke up, and every single day I did everything within my ability during that day to change my life. What could happen in just a month? A year?”
~Liz Murray, Breaking Night: A Memior Forgivness, Survival, and My Journey From Homeless to Harvard
“But avoidance allows you to believe that you're making all kinds of strides when you're not.”
