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

The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.

Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

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

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

Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake.

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

Maybe who we are isn't so much about what we do, but rather what we're capable of when we least expect it.

Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.

Pretend you’re more obsessed with this moment and a little bit less with the way it ends.

I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
