“Become who you are!”

I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible.

We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.

What is the seal of liberation? Not to be ashamed in front of oneself.

One must learn to love.

In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.

There is always some madness in love, but there is also always some reason in madness.

When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago.

Healing is a process. Many are wondering what steps they can personally take today. Every action matters, big and small, in being an advocate for change.

Whatever is hurting you today, is giving you the strength to face your tomorrow.

If ever happiness happens to forget you even a little bit, never completely forget about it.

When everything seems obscure remember that there is a strong luster of rays within you; be your own sun.

We do not heal in isolation. When we reach out and connect with one another—when we tell the story, name the hurt, grant forgiveness, and renew or release the relationship—our suffering begins to transform.
