&ldquo;Real life is a funny thing. In real life, saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial, in fact, that most of us start to hesitate.... for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But, lately what I&#039;ve begun to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything. I think you deserve to look back on your life without this chorus of resounding voices saying I could&#039;ve but it&#039;s too late now. So there&#039;s a time for silence, there&#039;s a time for waiting your turn, but if you know how you feel and you so clearly know what you need to say, you&#039;ll know it. I don&#039;t think you should wait.... you should Speak Now.&rdquo; <br /> -Taylor Swift
