I prefer to see with closed eyes.

Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.

Every perception of color is an illusion, we do not see colors as they really are. In our perception they alter one another.

In true love it is the soul that envelops the body.

My roses are my jewels; the sun, moon, and stars my clocks; fruit and water my fare.

Some relationships aren't true relationships. And it's usually when the other person does something really terrible that you realize it. And that's when it's time to move on.

Happiness has a very short half-life.
