Love is a tenacious adventure.

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

Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.

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

Happiness is not made by what we own. It is what we share.

In all things it is better to hope than to despair.

Curiosity is the wick in the candle of learning.

All mistakes teach us something, so there are, in reality, no mistakes.

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.

Walls turned sideways are bridges.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others.

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