You can get around to meaningful conversations more quickly in the dark than with the sun tickling your face.

An empty day, though clear and bright, Is just as dark as any night.

Older people have formed their opinions about everything, and don't waver before they act. It's twice as hard for us young ones to hold our ground, and maintain our opinions, in a time when all ideals are being shattered and destroyed, when people are showing their worst side, and do not know whether to believe in truth and right and God.

Who knows, perhaps he doesn't care about me at all and look at the others in just the same way.

I love you, with a love so great that it simply couldn't keep growing inside my heart, but had to leap out and reveal itself in all its magnitude.

leave me in peace, let me sleep one night at least without my pillow being wet with tears, my eyes burning and my head throbbing

I have often been downcast, but never in despair.
