Optimism is a perfectly legitimate response to failure.

Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

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

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

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

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

The world is like a Mask dancing. If you want to see it well, you do not stand in one place.

The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.

Love... is the honoring of others in a way that grants them the grace of their own autonomy.

The only lasting truth is change.

Joy is not in things, it is in us.

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