Although our love never dies, the pain of our loss can eventually dissolve.

Suffering is not a prerequisite for happiness.

Grief is a wound that needs attention in order to heal.

Appreciate life instead of resisting it.

Though we may not always be able to avoid pain, we can choose how much we suffer.

We learn to face the reality and the pain of our loss, to say good-bye to the dead loved one, to restore ourselves, and to reinvest in life once again.

I want to feel what I feel. What's mine. Even if it's not happiness, whatever that means. Because you're all you've got.

Hurting someone will not impress them. Intelligence requires empathy to work. Water is wet. The sky is pink through these rose-tinted glasses.

We can't choose our lives, but we can decide what to do with the joys or griefs we're given.

If you end your story, it's a static work of art, a finite circle. But if you don't, it belongs to anyone's imagination. It stays alive forever.

In the beginning was the sea, and the sea was the world

Time goes, you say? Ah, no! alas, time stays, we go.

I'm kind of big on performance in general. I like the sort of entertainment where you can go in and be fully immersed in it.

I have no interest in going to Egypt and seeing the pyramids. I'm just not that kind of dude.

I don't think making love the new bottom line is naïve; I believe that thinking we can survive the next hundred years doing anything less, is naïve.

A crowded police docket is the surest of all signs that trade is brisk and money plenty.
