| Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience. The most exhausting thing in life is being insincere. Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies. A good laugh is sunshine in a house. Everybody must be given a chance, and another, and another, as many as the heart can endure. The safest way to double your money is to fold it once and put it in your pocket. When I did well I heard it never. When I did ill I heard ever. Look back and smile at perils past. Stretching out his hand to catch the star, he forgets the flowers at his feet. If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you shouldn't blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. Fear knocked at the door. Faith answered it. No one was there. He who builds according to everyone's advice will have a crooked house. The ideals which have lighted my way and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been kindness, beauty and truth. Never feel self-pity, the most destructive emotion there is. How awful to be caught up in the terrible squirrel cage of self. The mirror tells only the facts, never the poetry. What upsets me is not that you lied to me but that from now on I can no longer believe you. Those who in quarrel interpose, must often wipe a bloody nose. To err is human, but to forgive is divine, so don't slip up. Fame is what you have taken, character's what you give. When to this truth you have awaken, then you begin to live. When you refuse to accept the obvious, you have taken your first giant step towards creativity. Life is fortified by many friendships. To love and to be loved is the greatest happiness of existence. People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges. Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow; it only saps today of its strength. Beauty is only skin deep; ugly goes to the bone. The light at the end of the tunnel is the headlamp of an oncoming train. |
