“There is no disappointment so numbing...as someone no better than you achieving more.”
“One loves art more than life; it's better than life, don't you think, Ali? It doesn't disappoint so," she sighed. "It's not so frightening," she said, her eyes filled with terror.”
“Disappointment and heartbreak are always opportunities for someone or something bigger and better to come in for you.”
“To love someone so deeply means also that it will hurt a thousand times more when he disappoints or leaves you”
“In fact, I'd go one better, and venture that there's nothing more important than friendship: if it should then take you to the ends of the earth with someone you like and admire, so much the better”
“To achieve something is better than not achieving.”
