All of us are products of our childhood.

You can have it all. Just not all at once.

The only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants.

To protect our freedoms, it seems we're going to have to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of time.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

The body is meant to be seen, not all covered up.

It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone.

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

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

Life does not need to mutilate itself in order to be pure.

If you want to keep your memories, you first have to live them.

It is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually.

I think the highest and lowest points are the important ones. Anything else is just...in between.

I am not young enough to know everything.
