Life only demands from you the strength that you possess. Only one feat is possible; not to run away.

Creative people have to be fed from the divine source.

It is more noble to give yourself completely to one individual than to labor diligently for the salvation of the masses.

If a good person does you wrong, act as though you had not noticed it. They will make note of this and not remain in your debt long.

We've got to learn hard things in our lifetime, but it's love that gives you the strength. It's being nice to people and having a lot of fun and laughing harder than anything, hopefully every single day of your life.

Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions.

Never let success hide its emptiness from you, achievement its nothingness, toil its desolation. And so...keep alive the incentive to push on further, that pain in the soul which drives us beyond ourselves...Do not look back. And do not dream about the future, either. It will neither give you back the past, nor satisfy your other daydreams. Your duty, your reward - your destiny - are here and now.
