“It’s hard to love a woman and do anything.”

Is it really possible to tell someone else what one feels?

Grow spiritually and help others to do so. It is the meaning of life.

I’m like a starving man who has been given food. Maybe he’s cold, and his clothes are torn, and he’s ashamed, but he’s not unhappy.

Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.

Be bad, but at least don’t be a liar, a deceiver!

Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them.

Human science fragments everything in order to understand it, kills everything in order to examine it.

I wanted movement and not a calm course of existence. I wanted excitement and danger and the chance to sacrifice myself for my love.

The law of loving others could not be discovered by reason, because it is unreasonable.

There is no greatness where there is not simplicity, goodness, and truth.

The whole world is divided for me into two parts: one is she, and there is all happiness, hope, light; the other is where she is not, and there is dejection and darkness.

He stepped down, trying not to look long at her, as if she were the sun, yet he saw her, like the sun, even without looking.

Faith is the force of life.

Real wisdom is not the knowledge of everything, but the knowledge of which things in life are necessary, which are less necessary, and which are completely unnecessary to know.

The more is given the less the people will work for themselves, and the less they work the more their poverty will increase.

Rest, nature, books, music – such is my idea of happiness.

How hard it must be to love someone so broken.

If you find it complicated to answer someone’s question, do not answer it, for his container is already full and does not have room for the answer.

I do not have too much sex. I hardly have any sex, O.K.? A lot of people get the wrong perception of me.

I feel like every time I write a song, it feels like the first time I wrote a song. It’s just as hard. It doesn’t get easier, but that’s why I love it: because it’s a challenge every time.

To be a poor man is hard, but to be a poor race in a land of dollars is the very bottom of hardships.

It’s hard to explain but I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard. And this desire never to stop fighting is something else I learnt in the place where I grew up.

Those who fight the hardest for change are the ones who most believe its possible.

Sometimes anger is the hardened hurt we never healed from.
