The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life.

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

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

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.

It is so easy to give, so exquisitely rewarding.

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

A hunch is creativity trying to tell you something.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

Tolerance, like any aspect of peace, is forever a work in progress.

The gratification comes in the doing, not in the results.

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
