I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes.

There is within me a friend who consoles me every time that troubles overwhelm me and misfortunes afflict me. The man who does not feel friendship towards himself is a public enemy, and he who finds no confidant within himself will die of despair. For life streams out of man's inner self and in no way from what surrounds him.

Who are you that men should rend their bosom and unveil their pride, that you may see their worth naked and their pride unabashed? See first that you yourself deserve to be a giver, and an instrument of giving.

If I accept the sunshine and warmth, then I must also accept the thunder and lightning.

I do not want you to hear that I LOVE you, but I want you to feel it without me having to say.

Do not keep crying when your love has been gone. You only need Smile because he had been given you the opportunity to meet someone who is better.

Love... it surrounds every being and extends slowly to embrace all that shall be.
