- a newborn puppy is not afraid of a tiger.
- all things will pass. it may seem like a big problem at the moment... but it will pass. so enduring and waiting for things to pass.. that's strength.
- anger is a wasted emotion.
- be strong. there are many people around you who are protecting you and there are many people that you are protecting as well.
- don’t do something permanently stupid just because you’re temporarily upset.
- even though the sea and the sky are so far apart, they can still be together.
- give yourself permission to immediately walk away from anything that gives you bad vibes. there is no need to explain or make sense of it. just trust what you feel.
- holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
- I am interested in how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other.
- I learnt that, instead of going back in time, you should live every day as if you have deliberately gone back in time to live it again. that is the secret to happiness.
- 'I want happiness, how do I get it?' he asked. first of all, you must get rid of 'I' - that's ego, then remove 'want' - that's desire. then, you are left with happiness.
- if someone wants you in their life, they will make room for you.
- it bothers me that no one has the patience to deal with someone who is just sad.
- only a fool trips on what is behind him.
- people run from the rain but sit in bathtubs full of water.
- raise your words, not voice. it is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
- some say miracles exist, others say they don't. but in the end, at the desperate moment, anyone prays and waits for a miracle. that's why a miracle should exist. so that a slight hope, at least, can be given at every desperate moment, a miracle must exist. but miracles are miracles because they're not common. rather than luck you didn't anticipate, there's much more misfortune that you couldn't even think of in this world. life, to live believing in only miracles, is cold and harsh. in the end, miracles are a matter of probability. miracles exist only for one person. for the remaining 9,999 people, it's merely nonsense. life is, in all and overwhelming probability, cruel. still, we need miracles. rather than despair that has zero percent probability, a possibility that could happen once in 100,000; a sliver of possibility is still better. only then do we have hope.
- sometimes it's not a 'happy face' that determines the character of a person but the truth behind their words.
- the sign of a beautiful person is that they always see beauty in others.
- the star shines for everyone in the world, but it, itself, is surrounded by darkness.
- ..the terrible ferocity that amateurs in the field of suffering might mistake for weakness.
- there are some people who could hear you speak a thousand words and still not understand you. and there are others who will understand without you even speaking a word.
- we all get used to the relationships in this world and, eventually, we take them for granted. the strongest power of a present is appreciating that familiar and natural relationship once again. by picking a present and worrying about the card phrases, and while we put our thoughts and our heart in them, you realize how much that person means, again. moreover, those thoughts and feelings will most definitely be delivered to the recipient. however, if that familiar and natural relationship degrades into insensitivity, any gifts or belated efforts have no meaning. to the withered orchid which was abandoned in the corner of the porch, belated water and fertilizer are useless. before the relationship withers, before you become dull with each other, a gift should be given. Your heart should be expressed.
- we all have two lives. the second begins when you realise you only have one.
- whatever we cherish, we shall lose. it's simply the truth. it's what we all know already but don't want to examine. the question is: What do we do about it?
- who saves the hero when they are no longer able to save themselves?
- would you believe in what you believe in, if you were the only one who believed it?
- would you rather have somebody to fight with or nobody at all?
- you have to know how it feels to fall down to be able to stand back up.
