- The soul aids the body, and at certain moments, raises it. It is the only bird which bears up its own cage.
- Don't be afraid of the person you have become.
- Love is the longing for the half of ourselves we have lost.
- No one ever stopped when they were winning.
- I felt my lungs inflate with the inrush of scenery — air, mountains, trees, people. I thought, 'This is what it is like to be happy.'
- I hope that one day you will have the experience of doing something you do not understand for someone you love.
- Thoughts are made of water and water always finds a way.
- Books break the shackles of time, proof that humans can work magic.
- Goodness comes from within. Goodness is something chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man.
- Keep your anger and hatred for another day, for later on. The day will come, but not now.
- Always go to bed with a good book. Or with someone who has just read one.
- Don't do what you want. Do what you don't want. Do what you're trained not to want. Do the things that scare you the most.
- I was raised among books, making invisible friends in pages that seemed cast from dust and whose smell I carry on my hands to this day.
- Life goes on. Get over it. You’re still young. It'll get better.
- All you have to do is desire it, and if you desire it enough and understand why — really know — it will come.
