Books are easily destroyed. But words will live as long as people can remember them.

Raindrops are my only reminder that clouds have a heartbeat. That I have one, too.

All I ever wanted was to reach out and touch another human being not just with my hands but with my heart.

The world is a mess and I want to laugh because all I can think is how horrible and beautiful it is, that our eyes blur the truth when we can't bear to see it.

I love walking into a bookstore. It's like all my friends are sitting on shelves, waving their pages at me.

The words get easier the moment you stop fearing them.

I can do anything I want. Be with anyone I want. And it'll be my choice.

It's the kind of kiss that inspires stars to climb into the sky and light up the world.

People seldom realize that they tell lies with their lips and truths with their eyes all the time.

Hope is a pocket of possibility. I'm holding it in my hand.

What wants to live in you may be waiting...at the end of a long loneliness.

Youth is the period of harsh judgments, and a man seldom learns until he reaches thirty that human nature is made up not of simples, but of compounds.

The thoughts of Youth are long, long thoughts

There are none so impoverished as those who do not acknowledge the abundance of their lives

I have a very lively and colourful show. It's two hours of hits and the music speaks for itself.

Get your hustle on... Hard work is easy, working out is hard.
