That is the mysterious thing about tragedy- it often strikes at the happiest moment.

When you were in love you knew no fear or hatred.

Yes. The opposite of love is not hate. It is indifference. That is why few people find God. They go to church and talk about him and that sort of thing. They may even go out and evangelize and try to win converts. But in their hearts, if they are honest with themselves, they are indifferent to him because they cannot see him. God is too abstract for people. God is a word without meaning. If Jesus came back today, nothing he said would make any sense to those who wait for him. They would be the first ones to kill him again.

But I wasn't a bad girl. I don't want to be forgotten. I want people to remember me.

People are responsible for their actions, but not the fruits of their actions. Always do what you think is right, but don't worry if good does not always come from what you do.

How much modern civilization has lost, I think, when they lost the awareness of the billions of stars overhead.

You search endlessly for permanent happiness in a world where nothing is permanent.
