Catch the beauty of the moment!

There is only the moment. The now. Only what you are experiencing at this second is real.

Happiness comes only when we push our brains and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable. The purpose of life is to matter-to count, to stand for something, to have it make so difference that we lived at all.

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, to weep is to risk appearing too sentimental, to reach out for another is to risk involvement, and to expose feelings is to risk exposing one's true self.

I have a very strong feeling that the opposite of love is not hate - it's apathy. It's not giving a damn.

The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love. Chained by his certitude, he is a slave; he has forfeited his freedom. Only the person who risks is truly free.

In order to learn, you have to be free. You have to be free to experiment, free to try, free to make mistakes.
