Only love can heal the wounds of the past.

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

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.

Above all, don't fear difficult moments. The best comes from them.

It is not enough to know your craft — you have to have feeling.

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

Enthusiasm is the great hill-climber.

It isn't a sadness, but a joy, that we don't do the same things for the length of our lives.

One shouldn't just hope to be treated well: one must insist on it.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food!

Live for each second without hesitation.
