Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.

The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.

The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.

One day you will wake up and there won't be any more time to do the things you've always wanted. Do it now.

When someone sees the same people every day, as had happened with him at the seminary, they wind up becoming a part of that person's life. And then they want the person to change. If someone isn't what others want them to be, the others become angry. Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

Don’t close your eyes to the Universe and then complain: ‘It’s dark.
