You were the poem I never knew how to write because no words could describe the wind you cannot see, but feel.

He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.

If you spend your time hoping someone will suffer the consequences for what they did to your heart, then you're allowing them to hurt you a second time in your mind.

A true gentleman is one that apologizes anyways, even though he has not offended a lady intentionally. He is in a class all of his own because he knows the value of a woman's heart.

A best friend is the only one that walks into your life when the world has walked out.

The most confused you will ever get is when you try to convince your heart and spirit of something your mind knows is a lie.

When you loved someone and had to let them go, there will always be that small part of yourself that whispers, "What was it that you wanted and why didn't you fight for it?

Grateful people are good people, and good people are happy people

My sparrow, she flickers and wakes and sings and sings.

Our illness is often our healing.

Movies are - all I've found is that they're just tougher and tougher to make.

My morale has never been higher than since I stopped asking for grants to keep my lab going.

Reading - the best state yet to keep absolute loneliness at bay.
