Love is short, forgetting is long, and understanding longer still.

The answer doesn't lie in learning how to protect ourselves from life-it lies in learning how to become strong enough to let a bit more of it in.

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

The conflict between what one is and who one is expected to be touches all of us. And sometimes, rather than reach for what one could be, we choose the comfort of the failed role, preferring to be the victim of circumstance, the person who didn't have a chance.

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.

The older I get, the clearer it becomes to me that no one is cheated in this world, unless it's by himself.

you have to be very careful when you give to others that you don't tell them how great you are rather than how much you value them.
