Sometimes we laugh to keep from crying, but the important thing is to laugh, every chance we get.

Remember what your mama told you about honey and vinegar: Be nice, and you’ll catch more flies, if nothing else.

Listen to me instead of your financial manager: It’s okay to spend money, to save it, to give it away, to worry over it. It’s just money. Your only enemy in life is time. Do be miser with time: hoard it, treasure it, don’t squander a single minute of it.

There are different kinds and degrees of love, and they change over time, ripening and deepening and changing us in the process.

Be nice to people whether you mean it or not. You never know when a kind word can make a difference in another person’s day – or maybe even his or her life.

Some might say we lose ourselves in a good book. In truth, we find ourselves.

People come in and out of our lives, and each of them helps form who we are and who we are to become.
