Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

What a lovely surprise to finally discover how unlonely being alone can be.

We turn not older with years, but newer every day.

Everything in nature invites us constantly to be what we are.

Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature.

We are all afraid to say too much, to feel too deeply, to let people know what they mean to us.

The only thing people regret is that they didn’t live boldly enough, that they didn’t invest enough heart, didn’t love enough.

Once you realize that you can do something, it would be difficult to live with yourself if you didn’t do it.

I restore myself when I'm alone. A career is born in public — talent in privacy.

It is so easy to give, so exquisitely rewarding.

The first time you do something only happens once.
