And our dreams are who we are.

Being judgmental about your own behavior is actually another cop-out because it makes you feel as though you're doing something virtuous.

What you're really supposed to be doing is whatever makes your heart sing.

The first step is to find out what you love - and don't be practical about it. The second step is to start doing what you love immediately, in any small way possible.

Whatever your dreams are, start taking them very, very seriously.

We all need to learn a new language for love - a language that speaks not in socks, pancakes, and paychecks, but in shared fascination with physics or poetry, delight in each other's uniqueness, and mutual practical and emotional support.

A direct statement about yourself is considered objective only if it is negative. If it's positive, it is considered subjective. And 'objective' means it is accurate, and 'subjective' means it is conceited self-delusion.
