Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.

I am all the things I have ever loved.

There will always be someone who can't see your worth. Don't let it be you.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul.

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.

The transformation of the heart is a wondrous thing, no matter how you land there.

I was smart enough to go through any door that opened.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it.
