I want to do a toilet paper album for a friend who just lost her father. This album would have no pictures, just phases. The way I want to do it is put a title of sorts on the actual page and the phrase on the tag inside that page. Ex: title: stress Phrase: never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. This obviously doesn't pertain to losing someone but you get the idea.
Anyway, I need help with coming up with things to write both for the titles and phrases. I need about eight of them. Here are some titles I need phrases for:
Courage
Peace
Solace
Memories
Love
Acceptance
Legacy
I can't think of anything else. Can you help me? Please with a cherry on top?

Courage:
True strength is keeping everything together when everyone expects you to fall apart.
“There is no need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bear witness that a man has the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer.”
- Frankl
Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day that says: "I'll try again tomorrow."
In fact, here's the link - there are hundred of amazing ones here... http://boardofwisdom.com/togo/?start=11&vi ewid...
Put your other words in the search field and see what you get. I've bookmarked that for the future for myself too!
That's a lovely idea Vivi.  to your friend.

To lose someone you love, is to alter your life forever.
The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes...
This hole in your heart is the shape of the one you lost - no one else can fit it.

I was going to categorize them like you were looking for, but I thought maybe it'd be better to just post them and you can put them under whatever title that fits for you. (You will notice that I love Brian Andreas. LOL)
I like this one - which is what Rosey posted, too.
Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow. ~Mary Anne Radmacher
I still remember the day the world took you back & there was never time to thank you for the thousand scattered moments you left behind to watch us while we slept. ~Brian Andreas
I know he's not really gone, she said, but the world still feels smaller to me today. ~Brian Andreas
I wish you could have been there for the sun & the rain & the long, hard hills. For the sound of a thousand conversations scattered along the road. For the people laughing & crying & remembering at the end. But, mainly, I wish you could have been there. ~Brian Andreas
The most important thing you leave behind is the stuff that turns into treasures when children find it. ~Brian Andreas
There are days I drop words of comfort on myself like falling rain & remember it is enough to be taken care of by myself. ~Brian Andreas
I never knew emptiness could weigh so much, she said. I can barely hold it. So I sat beside her & reached for her hand & we held it together. ~Brian Andreas
God gave us memories that we might have roses in December. ~J.M. Barrie
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.
~Thomas Campbell
Life is eternal, and love is immortal,
and death is only a horizon;
and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.
~Rossiter Worthington Raymond

I think this could work for acceptance or something.
It is not what you first think. There is no effort of will, no firm resolve in the face of this thing called living. There is only paying attention to the quiet each morning, while you hold your cup in the cool air & then that moment you choose to spread your love like a cloth upon the table & invite the whole day in again. ~Brian Andreas

I found it. And tumblecloud, although I couldn't get that to show anything. Maybe I have to sign up.

I love everything you guys posted! Thank you, I can't wait to get started on it! I made her a card today to hold me over until I finish the album.
