If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.

Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.

My dark days made me strong. Or maybe I already was strong, and they made me prove it.

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

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

The quality of your life depends quite a bit on the quality of attention you project out onto the world.

A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us.

You will never get any more out of life than you expect.

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.

You must not try to make love definite. It is the divine accident of life.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food!

From our first babblings to our last word, we make but one statement, and that is our life.
