My calm is like the tides: never at rest.
Better to find one thing to live for than a thousand things to be against.
The real plague is willful ignorance and education can’t cure that.
A brutal, relentless self-analysis lies at the heart of all despair.
The world is endlessly fascinating to those who take the time to look.
It never ceases to amaze me: the things people care about.
The hammer never complains of the noise.
The ripe apple falls, it doesn’t know what else to do.
What saves us from succumbing to utter meaninglessness is not reason but instinct.
More than jealousy or possessiveness pettiness kills love.
How different every hour is from the one before!
The earth and sky are like two mirrors facing each other.
Feelings of superiority always stem from an illusion.
Pain never apologizes.
Flowers are the music of the earth.
Delight in your sensuality, in the dance of your desires. Don’t be ashamed of it.
You don’t need a reason to sing.
All children are born rebels and explorers until they’re taught to sit still and obey.
Distance is a bridge, not a gulf, between lovers.
We will remain lost, wandering souls until we can look each other in the eye and smile.
