You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.
If you look for perfection, you'll never be content.
All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages.
Sometimes you make choices in life and sometimes choices make you.
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich.
How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.
What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.
Be clearly aware of the stars and infinity on high. Then life seems almost enchanted after all.
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
There are better things ahead than any we leave behind.
You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You can never live long enough to make them all yourself.
We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful, that’s what matters to me.
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
Freedom lies in being bold.
Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.
Is there no way out of the mind?
The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all.
