“Who has ever deserved anything they've been given? Love isn't about deserving,cara mia. It's about giving. And accepting. And sharing. The most worthy heart is also the most courageous.”

“I deserve passion," she said. "I deserve to be loved- in every way. I deserve a man who'll give his whole heart, not the part he isn't using at the moment..”

“Life isn't about getting what you deserve, it's about how you deal with it.”

“You often say,'I would give, but only to the deserving.'The trees in your orchard say not so, nor the flocks in your pasture.They give that they may live, for to withhold is to perish.Surely he who is worthy to receive his days and his nights, is worthy of all else from you.And he who has deserved to drink from the ocean of life deserves to fill his cup from your little stream. ”

“We're mortal, yet without a known expiration date. It's an inevitable fate worthy of acceptance, but not deserving of predictions.”

“For the most part, we all get what we deserve...now isn't that a lovely two edged sword?”
