Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.

However rare true love may be it is less so than true friendship.

There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.

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

Remember there's a big difference between kneeling down and bending over.

When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose.

I trust that everything happens for a reason, even when we’re not wise enough to see it.

Who is wise? He that learns from everyone.
