Accepting oneself does not preclude an attempt to become better.

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.

I'm afraid I'm an incorrigible life-lover, life-wonderer, and adventurer.

My happiness grows in direct proportion to my acceptance, and in inverse proportion to my expectations.

Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood.

Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears.

We need men who can dream of things that never were.

Trust your gut. Forgive yourself. Be grateful.

In the end, some of your greatest pains become your greatest strengths.

I'd rather live with a tender heart, because that is the key to feeling the beat of all of the other hearts.

A good friend is a connection to life — a tie to the past, a road to the future.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive.
