Ignorance is relatively easy to cure, stupidity is much harder.
~ Marty Rubin
Only lies are subtle. Truth walks right up to you in the street and kicks you in the ass.
No burden is heavier to bear than the burden of a false idea.
Truth is an outlaw in every country.
A mask can hide you from others, but not from yourself.
Talking is good. It's good to disturb the silence.
Silence stands between the trees, waiting for the wind's roar.
Behind every mask there is a face, and behind that a story.
We are all nameless inside.
Be what you are not. The true self is no one.
Any casual observer can tell at a glance I'm not the person I think I am.
Whatever we may be or seem to others, to ourselves we are always just ourselves
What we invent, we become
Distance is not a gulf but a bridge between lovers.
Distance is a bridge, not a gulf, between lovers.
All lovers meet and love by chance.
A story has value whether it's true or not.
A scale can tell what a body weighs, but not its value.
The demand for justice always exceeds the supply.
Maybe there is no justice, just different degrees of injustice.
When you transplant a rose, transplant the reddest one.
Being different is not a sin, but intolerance is.
A gloomy view of things is at least one misfortune you can avoid.
What makes or breaks us ultimately is our attitude toward the things we can't control.
A broken mirror is good luck if you want it to be.
The true poetic feeling is a feeling of boundless gratitude.
Be grateful to those who refuse your demands. They are your benefactors.
oYu begin with other people's stories and end up with your own.
You begin with other people's stories and end up with your own.
The story of the tree is written on every leaf.
Some stories end in despair, some begin there
Optimists think badly, but live well.
Because I took the sun for granted it shone on me.
When you are the problem, it's hard to see it.
Death is not a choice, even for the suicide.
A man or woman becomes happy by choosing happiness every day.
The woods are full of poison berries but you don't have to eat them.
The more idealism proves futile, the more I respect idealists.
We love those to whom we can tell our story.
Water flows because it's willing.
