Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.

We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims.

Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

We all owe death a life.

Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes you love them more.

Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.
