"Dignity and love do not blend well, nor do they continue long together."

"Our lives improve only when we take chances -- and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves."
-- Walter Anderson

"Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives."
--A. Sachs

Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.
--Will Rogers

"If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome."
-- Anne Dudley Bradstreet

"When you are in a state of nonacceptance, it's difficult to learn. A clenched fist cannot receive a gift, and a clenched psyche--grasped tightly against the reality of what must not be accepted--cannot easily receive a lesson."
-- Roger John


"Do not assume that she who seeks to comfort you now, lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. Her life may also have much sadness and difficulty, that remains far beyond yours. Were it otherwise, she would never have been able to find these words."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke


"We become wiser by adversity; prosperity destroys our appreciation of the right."
-- luscious Annaeus Seneca

"Without accepting the fact that everything changes, we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately, although it is true, it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience, we suffer."
