“If you don't know it, don't write it.”

“I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”

“I would encourage people to see through rather than look at their circumstances. If you see through your circumstances to the person you want to be, then your life and it's tragedies will have purpose. If you look at your circumstances, then you will despair and give up.”

“If the years have taught me one thing it's that those who care are always scarce. Those who genuinely care; not the acquaintances, false friends or those with similar aspirations. The few who seek your company, the souls who would plainly step off the world for you. Once you resolve to ignore them, only regret will follow.”

“Unnatural, unorthodox, amoral: those pretensions crumble when confronted by true happiness. You shouldn't give another the authority to draw a line defining the boundaries of acceptable joy.”

“Every decision has a consequence.”
