The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.

With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die.

I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else.

To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.
