Life is an ongoing process of choosing between safety (out of fear and need for defense) and risk (for the sake of progress and growth). Make the growth choice a dozen times a day.

I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.

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

Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.

History has shown there are no invincible armies.

The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.

Diamonds are a girls best friend.

I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained.

The pleasure of the moment begins to wither almost as soon as it blossoms; our pleasures are soon swallowed up in time's relentless torrent.

Only he who accepts clashes and conflicts in life, loves life.

Don't be concerned others not appreciating you. Be concerned about your not appreciating others.

Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.

No passion in the world is equal to the passion to alter someone else's draft.

To forget is the secret of eternal youth. One grows old only through memory. There's much too little forgetting.

To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival.

What do you want meaning for? Life is desire, not meaning.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

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

Nature is not human-hearted.
