Our times are obsessed with finding fulfillment, so there are times when some people try too hard, and there are people who want to have the newest feelings just as there are those who want to have the latest model car. You can't play at love any more than you can be proud of your humility, or add water to your perfume and have it smell the same, but men and women both have been known to try.

You can tell a lot about what a man lacks by watching what he is cynical about, and many of us are cynical about love.

There are no perfect men of course, but some are more perfect than others, and we can use all of those we can get.

One can't run in a park without a dog or make angels in the snow without a child and there are things one can't do without a lover, so the loss of the lover is like an amputation and the patient goes into shock.

Life is like fording a river, stepping from one slippery stone to another, and you must rejoice every time you don't lose your balance, and learn to laugh at all the times you do.

Our strength is in our dreams, and those who do not dare to dream damn themselves.

It takes great generosity to accept generosity.
