Most human beings, though in varying degrees, desire to control, not only their own lives but also the lives of others

The root of the matter is a very simple and old fashioned thing... love or compassion. If you feel this, you have a motive for existence, a guide for action, a reason for courage, an imperative necessity for intellectual honesty.

All great books contain boring portions, and all great lives have contained uninteresting stretches.

Affection cannot be created; it can only be liberated.

dont let the old break you; let the love make you

What we cannot think we cannot think, therefore we also cannot say what we cannot think.

One is always a little afraid of love, but above all, one is afraid of pain or causing pain.
