Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.

I have always held firmly to the thought that each one of us can do a little to bring some portion of misery to an end.

We all know how important love is, yet how often is it really emoted or exhibited? What so many sick people in this world suffer from-loneliness, boredom and fear-can't be cured with a pill.

We cannot possibly let ourselves get frozen into regarding everyone we do not know as an absolute stranger.

An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while a pessimist sees only the red stoplight... the truly wise person is colorblind.

Truth has no special time of its own. Its hour is now - always.

It doesn't matter if an animal can reason. It matters only that it is capable of suffering and that is why I consider it my neighbor.
