My soul refuses to be satisfied so long as it is a helpless witness of a single wrong or a single misery.

Where there is love there is life.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

True beauty lies in purity of the heart.

The future depends on what you do today.

Fearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality. Cowards can never be moral.

In a gentle way, you can shake the world

You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

They cannot take away our self respect if we do not give it to them.

An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.

Relationships are based on four principles: respect, understanding, acceptance and appreciation.

You have only 3 days-yesterday is won or lost-today is just with you.Tomorrow you have not.Act now, unlock your potentials

Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.

I don't agree that when you love, you are blind or fool. You just get wiser and see clearer what is best and of worth.

The best lives and stories are made up of minute particulars that somehow are also universal and of use to others as well as oneself.

When a man says it's a silly childish game, it's probably something his wife can beat him at.

My biggest kick in music -playing or writing- is when I have a problem. Without a problem to solve, how much interest do you take in anything?

I love biomedical science, I love astronomy, and you can't really do much with those in a fantasy setting.

If you had told me when I was 18 that I wouldn't have made it until I was 29, I would have said, Forget it.

I think people who come into my home feel comfortable and welcome and loved. And the biggest thing in my living room (the fireplace) is in and of itself an expression of love.

I never go anywhere. I do sketches and make phone calls, and people visit. It's more fun to come to Paris.
