Pain is a teacher from whom we can learn much.

Loneliness is the prison of the human spirit. When we are lonely, we pace back and forth in small, shut-in worlds.

Love supposes, is, and does many things, but basically it is practiced in the act of sharing.

I wanted to play music from the age of seven. I suddenly fell in love with it and that's what I was going to do, or to be involved with music.

It is essential that our love be liberating, not possessive. We must at all times give those we love the freedom to be themselves. Love affirms the other as other. It does not possess and manipulate another as mine.

Comparison is the death of true self-contentment.

Love is not a feeling to be felt, it's an action to be learned.
