I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

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

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

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

The chief prevention against getting old is to remain astonished.

The simple act of paying attention can take you a long way.

Act as if someone just said there’s no reason to be afraid.

You will never get any more out of life than you expect.

I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

Do not whine... Do not complain. Work harder. Spend more time alone.

A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us.
