If you start by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about and few have seen.

A relationship is what happens between two people who are waiting for something better to come along.

I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

If we only wanted to be happy it would be easy; but we want to be happier than other people, which is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.
