“Suffering — how divine it is, how misunderstood! We owe to it all that is good in us, all that gives value to life; we owe to it pity, we owe to it courage, we owe to it all the virtues.”
“We all owe death a life.”
“Life doesn’t owe us anything. We only owe ourselves, to make the most of the life we are living, of the time we have left, and to live in gratitude.”
“The world owes us nothing; we owe each other the world. ”
“-and at the same time how deserving of life we can be, when we can honor this beauty that owes us nothing.”
“How Much Do We Owe People We Love?”
