“We have all been placed on this earth to discover our own path, and we will never be happy if we live someone else's idea of life.”

“History repeats itself only in that, from afar, we all seem to lead exactly the same life. We are all born; we all spend time here on earth; we all die. But, up close, we have each walked down our own separate paths. We have stood at our own lonely crossroads. We have touched the lives of others at crucial points, for better or for worse. In the end, each of us has lived a unique life story, astounding and complicated, a story taht could never be repeated.”

“As we lose ourselves in the service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness.”

“We never love anyone. What we love is the idea we have of someone. It's our own concept—our own selves—that we love.”

“we cant wait for someone else to do it, we have to take matters into our own hands or it will never be done.”

“Independence is counterfeit freedom. We think if we can make all our own choices and do our own thing, we will be free. But the opposite is true. By trying to be independent, we are attempting to take God’s place as the ruler of our lives. We can never succeed at creating happiness because we are the created, not the Creator.”
