Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.

Man is born free and everywhere he is in chains.

Life will not break your heart. It'll crush it.

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn

Time ripens all things; no one is born wise.

If one's different, one's bound to be lonely.

Life has a certain flavour for those who have fought and risked all that the sheltered and protected can never experience.
