Keeping a smile on your lips even when you're on the verge of tears. Feeling sorry for those who show their feelings.

I opened the window and my heart. The sun flooded my house and Love flooded my soul.

With every farewell comes a hidden hope.

All the world needs are examples of people capable of living out their dreams and fighting for their ideas.

What people regard as vanity—leaving great works, having children, acting in such a way as to prevent one's name from being forgotten—I regard as the highest expression of human dignity.

When we set out on the path, we always have a fairly clear idea of what we hope to find. Women are generally seeking their Soul Mate, and men looking for Power. Neither party is really interested in learning. They simply want to reach the thing they have set as their goal.

I will be capable of loving, regardless of whether I am loved in return, Of giving, when I have nothing, Of working happily, even in the midst of difficulties, Of holding out my hand, even when utterly alone and abandoned, Of drying my tears, even while I weep, Of believing, even when no one believes in me.
