Whoever is happy will make others happy.

I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death... I think... peace and tranquillity will return again.

Misfortunes never come singly.

But I won't bore you any longer on the subject of old men. It won't make things any better and all my plans of revenge (such as disconnecting the lamp, shutting the door, hiding his clothes) must be abandoned in order to keep the peace. Oh, I'm becoming so sensible!

But feelings can't be ignored, no matter how unjust or ungrateful they seem.

Women should be respected as well! Generally speaking, men are held in great esteem in all parts of the world, so why shouldn't women have their share? Soldiers and war heroes are honored and commemorated, explorers are granted immortal fame, martyrs are revered, but how many people look upon women too as soldiers?...Women, who struggle and suffer pain to ensure the continuation of the human race, make much tougher and more courageous soldiers than all those big-mouthed freedom-fighting heroes put together!

I've reached the point where I hardly care whether I live or die. The world will keep on turning without me, I can't do anything to change events anyway.
