The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life.

Nice is different than good.

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

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

To fight unhappiness one must first expose it.

What counts is not the things that happen, but what we do with them.

How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.

We must turn to each other and not on each other.

I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.

Work doesn't work without play.

To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.

Let everything you do be done in love.
