For life in general, there is but one decree: youth is a blunder, manhood a struggle, old age a regret.

The highest manifestation of strength is to keep ourselves calm and on our own feet.

On stage, I make love to 25,000 different people, then I go home alone.

The more I see, the less I know for sure.

We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.

The future is the shape of things to come.

Always say 'yes' to the present moment... Surrender to what is. Say 'yes' to life - and see how life starts suddenly to start working for you rather than against you.

Live your life as though your every act were to become a universal law.

Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

All that happens means something; nothing you do is ever insignificant.

As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.

Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

All that is not eternal is eternally out of date.

Doubt must be no more than vigilance, otherwise it can become dangerous.

Any place I hang my head is home.

I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing.

Life is made up of marble and mud.

All of us are products of our childhood.

Life belongs to the living, and he who lives must be prepared for changes

Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

No one has ever become poor by giving.
