True friendship withstands time, distance, and silence.

In all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.

You mustn't confuse a single failure with a final defeat.

Open to whatever you experience without fighting. Let it be present just as it is. Let go of the battle.

Don’t be afraid to be confused. Try to remain permanently confused. Anything is possible.

Words empowered by justice can never be silenced.

If you need something from somebody, always give that person a way to hand it to you.

You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. You can't save the people, if you don't serve the people.

I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

Attention is a moral act: It creates, brings aspects of things into being.

It’s the artists who do the dreaming for society.

If you look for perfection, you will never be satisfied.
