... but the greatest wisdom is blinded by the glare of vanity.

You can only know a good wine if you have first tasted a bad one.

Spending years studying at university only to find out at the end of it all that you're unemployable.

Perseverance brings good luck.

We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love. Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity. I've fallen in love many times... always with you. What I need to live has been given to me by the earth. Why I need to live has been given to me by you. Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.

Emotions were like wild horses and it required wisdom to be able to control them

Love lasts because it changes and not because it stays the same and never faces any challenges.
