What makes us feel drawn to music is that our whole being is music: our mind and body, the nature in which we live, the nature which has made us, all that is beneath and around us, it is all music.

Your heart is not living intil it has experienced pain... the pain of love breaks open the heart, even if it is as hard as a rock.

One must always say every word with consideration, and should not say what one does not wish to happen. Those who do not understand the value of suggestion walk after their own fate with a whip in their hand, and those who understand its value and control their word and use it rightly, they are a bliss to themselves and a source of happiness to others.

To make a friend, forgiveness is required which burns up all things, leaving only beauty; but to destroy friendship is easy.

For every loss, there is a hidden gain. And for every gain, there is a hidden loss.

Instead of lamenting your fate, create your world.
