The best way to know and destroy an enemy is to pretend to become his friend.

The glory of the world is transitory, and we should not measure our lives by it, but by the choice we make to follow our personal legend, to believe in our utopias, and to fight for our dreams.

When I had my sheep, I was happy, and I made those around me happy. People saw me coming and welcomed me, he thought. But now I'm sad and alone. I'm going to become bitter and distrustful of people because one person betrayed me. I'm going to hate those who have found their treasure because I never found mine. And I'm going to hold on to what little I have, because I'm too insignificant to conquer the world.

Courage. By beginning the journey with that word and continuing with faith in God, you will arrive wherever you need to arrive.

Nothing lasts forever ... pain and troubles included.

The search for happiness is purely personal and not a model we can give to others.

I don't try to control my days.
