Ruins, for me, are the beginning. With the debris, you can construct new ideas.

The heart is not like a box that gets filled up; it expands in size the more you love.

The ability to learn is the most important quality a leader can have.

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.

If there's love in a house, it's a palace for sure.

We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain.

The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn't said.

Love sought is good, but given unsought is better.

It's more difficult to be simple, and it's easier to be more complicated.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

Don't surrender all your joy for an idea you used to have about yourself that isn't true anymore.

The only lasting truth is change.
