Nothing is inherently and invincibly young except spirit.

All art is autobiographical; the pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.

There is nothing stronger than a broken woman who has rebuilt herself.

I'm an idealist. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

Travel is the traveler. What we see isn't what we see but what we are.

Love is a tenacious adventure.

Optimism is a happiness magnet.

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

The struggle, like life itself, should be joyful.
