All the variety, all the charm, all the beauty of life are made up of light and shade.

No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.

Risk something or forever sit with your dreams.

The man of faith, of energy, of warmth… steps in and does something.

To have courage for whatever comes in life — everything lies in that.

Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.

Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: "I'm with you kid. Let's go."

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

Ultimately, we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves.

To fight unhappiness one must first expose it.

Everything in nature invites us constantly to be what we are.

Take a canvas. Put a mark on it. Put another mark on it.
