In three words, I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: It goes on.

A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.

If it is true for you, it is true for someone else, and you are no longer alone.

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