Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul.

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.

At the end of the day, you are enough exactly as you are.

Walls turned sideways are bridges.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

The world belongs to the enthusiast who keeps cool.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time.

In quietness the soul expands.

The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.
