“What people think in their heart gets out, no matter how much they try to hide it.”

Trust is the first step to love.

Like timidity, bravery is also contagious.

The world assumes that we are very happy with high mansions, fine carriages, servants and attendants, huge investments, and concubines. But he who is without the honor and strength of the soul can be anything but happy.

My life is simple and rough.

If someone ensures us two square meals a day, we will sing and pray all our waking hours. If one has to hoe sugarcane all day, devotion to God vanishes like smoke.

The first condition of marriage between a man and a woman is that both must belong to each other totally.

Wealth and compassion are opposites.

I will not call that person happy who knows no rest because of his enemies, who is the butt of fun by all and for whom no one has any empathy, who is as if held on a leash by others, who has lost himself in hedonistic pursuits, who preys on those weaker to him and wags his tail for his superiors.

We all have to die some day. Not very many immortals have shown up in this world.

We think these big people are very happy, but the truth is they are worse than us. We are just worried about one thing – hunger; they have a thousand worries.

Beauty doesn’t need ornaments. Softness can’t bear the weight of ornaments.

The darkness in her heart, is tearing her apart.

Always show kindness and love to others. Your words might be filling the empty places in someone else heart.

I pretend it doesn’t bother me but it’s tearing me apart.

when the oceans heart breaks and the mermaid cries, her tears become sea glass-a gentle reminder that sometimes beautiful things come from pain.

Perhaps the best medicine to cure a sad heart is to take a break and go to the mountains without an internet connection.

If words could scatter flesh the way it feels inside the heart i’d be holding up the walls in the house of our goodbye.

You have always been able to manipulate my heart in such a way that even though I’m bleeding, I offer you band aids that are holding me together.

Let the moon teach you the art of scars. How beautiful you can shine, even with craters in your heart.
