Choices are fun! Everyone should have choices!
Women were put on this earth to have choices.
Choices are holy and should be protected at all costs.
Sure, your choice might be a bad choice but you won’t
be one of those mothers who regrets their choice.
Maybe your choice will be the choice that saves the world!
Oh, where would we be without choices? Life without choices
is meaningless. Having a choice is so brave.
I didn’t want a choice either until I had my own choice.
You should only make a choice if you really want to do it.
Don't wait until it's too late to have a choice.
You don't know real love until you have a choice.
Sure, a choice can be stressful but choices are so rewarding!
Your choices will be there when you’re old.
What do you mean you don’t like choices–
Only monsters don’t like choices.
Trust me, you want a choice.
