Even those afraid of the dark must live through half of each day as night, to come to see the beauty in each.

Beauty exists not in what is seen and remembered, but in what is felt and never forgotten.

No price is too high to pay, to be the author of your fate.

When darkness falls, beauty is lit from within.

Friends are life's ingredient that makes every sad moment sweeter, every difficult time easier, and every normal moment extraordinary.

True, lasting peace comes not through stamping out the ignorance of others, but through cultivating acceptance with ourselves.

Darkness is but a door, scary not because it opens, but out of fear that it will never close

True wisdom comes in understanding that sometimes, you are both the prison and the key.

There is no greater despair, than to tread with care upon ice that is already broken

The most precious etchings of caring can be traced not in the scope of its message, but in the integrity of its purpose.

Worry adds no hours to a day, nor happiness to a smile, so it is not worth succumbing to, especially when it obscures the sight of potential.

When I think of death, I know I have nothing to lose. Living life is only a gain.

Hope is not a strategy

Unhappy is the man though he rule the world who doesn't consider himself supremely blessed.

I try to take one day at a time but sometimes several days attack me at once.

We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.

He who tastes not, knows not.

If things are the way they are, why should I try to make them look different?
