Whenever you want to achieve something, keep your eyes open, concentrate and make sure you know exactly what it is you want. No one can hit their target with their eyes closed.

Reason lost the battle, and all I could do was surrender and accept I was in love.

Do not struggle against your thoughts; they are stronger than you are. If you want to be free of them, accept them.

If I had a choice, if I had understood earlier that the reason my days were all the same was because I wanted them like that, perhaps.

We are what we do, and not what we think we must do.

We suffer because we feel we are giving more than we receive. We suffer because our love is going unrecognized. We suffer because we are unable to impose our own rules.

Playing the part of a charitable soul was only for those who were afraid of taking a stand in life. It is always far easier to have faith in your own goodness than to confront others and fight for your rights. It is always easier to hear an insult and not retaliate than have the courage to fight back against someone stronger than yourself; we can always say we're not hurt by the stones others throw at us, and it's only at night - when we're alone and our wife or our husband or our school friend is asleep - that we can silently grieve over our own cowardice.
