“Heed my words, daughter, if you ever mean to be happy: Never give yourself to a man.”
“Nemo est qui tibi sapientius suadere possit te ipso: numquam labere, si te audies.(Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself: if you heed yourself, you'll never go wrong.)”
“And now you know why I love no one. Why I never have and never will. Heed my words well. Love only destroys.”
“Don't ever give up. Don't ever give in. Don't ever stop trying. Don't ever sell out. And if you find yourself succumbing to one of the above for a brief moment, pick yourself up, brush yourself off, whisper a prayer, and start where you left off.But never, ever, ever give up.”
“If you want to make an ordinary man happy, or think that he is happy, give him money, power, flattery, gifts, honours. If you want to make a wise man happy - improve yourself!”
“Never, ever give up on yourself.”
