Middle age has been defined as what happens when a person's broad mind and narrow waist change places.

I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it.

One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.

The more you live in the present moment, the more the fear of death disappears.

Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.

There is no worse bitterness than to reach the end of your life and realized you have not lived.

It takes a long time to grow young.

We can allow satellites, planets, suns, universe, nay whole systems of universes, to be governed by laws, but the smallest insect, we wish to be created at once by special act.

Old age is by nature rather talkative.

The rich will do anything for the poor but get off their backs.

If we are not free, no one will respect us.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.

Life should be great rather than long.

The highest manifestation of strength is to keep ourselves calm and on our own feet.

Too much of a good thing can be wonderful!

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.

A life not lived for others is not a life.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

Do not wait for the last judgment. It comes every day.

Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.
