I dream. Sometimes I think that's the only right thing to do.

Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.

Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.

The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.

It is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so.

The smaller the mind, the greater the conceit.

And no one will listen to us until we listen to ourselves.
