"He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words."  |

"Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence." |
 |
"Our ordinary mind always tries to persuade us that we are nothing but acorns and that our greatest happiness will be to become bigger, fatter, shinier acorns; but that is of interest only to pigs. Our faith gives us knowledge of something better: that we can become oak trees." |
 |
"You say you have thousands of my days; but I have thousands of moments, in which I can be merry and happy [the ephemera replying to the oak tree]."  |
 |
"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."  |
 |
"You are not a pawn in the chessgame of life, you are the mover of the pieces." |
 |
| "When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about, When he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow--You may succeed with another blow, Success is failure turned inside out--The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--It's when things seem worst that you must not quit." |
 |
"Life is about becoming more aware of who we are and how we fit into the world, not how the world has told us who we need to be. Ultimately, everything changes, and if you stop changing, you stop growing."  |
 |
| "When you love someone so deeply they become your life, it's easy to succumb overwhelming fears inside. Blindly I imagined I could keep you under a glass. Now I understand to hold you I must open my hand and watch you rise." |
 |
| "Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else." |
 |
"Unfortunately, there are so many people who live their whole life in a place that is safe and protected and simple and they don't really have that strength inside to fly."  |
