Tears are okay [Morrie Schwartz]

Love is how you stay alive, even after you are gone.

When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times.

Accept who you are; and revel in it.

Death ends a life, not a relationship.

This is part of what a family is about, not just love. It's knowing that your family will be there watching out for you. Nothing else will give you that. Not money. Not fame. Not work.

We all yearn for what we have lost. But sometimes, we forget what we have.

The truth is, once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.

Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

Nothing haunts us like the things we don't say.

Don't cling to things because everything is impermanent.

Life's true test of perseverance is continuing to run after learning that the finish line is only the start to a new race.

Life can be tough and harsh at times. That's what makes it great. Every day is a celebration of survival.

If you wish for peace, understand war.

If I lend my support to a specific cause, it has to be something that I look over and that I have a complete understanding of and it's not just some extracurricular bullshit.

Coming from TV and film, rule number one is that you always service the main character first and foremost. If that's not working, you've got nothing.

You were hidden behind walls of ice; no man had passed them; I broke them down and love leapt to love, and you lie here, my beautiful, love in the arms of its lover.

I guess, you make a big studio film, you spend a lot of money on it and you hope people go see it. It's really risky.

I want every family in America to have a carpet on the floor and a picture on the wall. After bread, you've got to have a picture on the wall.

Wrestling is a fraternity, and the boys will work their butts off for you as long as you respect them and don't lie. You can't anyone walk all over you or everybody will walk all over you.

The past isn't real because it's history, and the future isn't because it hasn't happened yet. I like it, it hints at virtual reality, which I think is how we sort of feel about life sometimes.
