Experiencing life through a book can help you learn without all the pain of going through the experiences first hand.

Keep in mind that life produces no maestros, only students of varying shades of ineptitude.

What do you know about sooner or later? Is a moment only a moment when you're in pain?

Fun, like champagne bubbles, can't completely fill you up.

I believe that love is better than hate. And that there is more nobility in building a chicken coop than in destroying a cathedral.

And taking care of somebody else made me feel good. Like discovering you're more than you thought you were. More even than you hoped to be.

It seems to me that a man who is incapable of humor is capable of cruelty.
