You will find, that when you have someone to love, that the face is less important than the brain, and the body is less important than the heart.
ADRIAN TANYou will find, that when you have someone to love, that the face is less important than the brain, and the body is less important than the heart.
ADRIAN TANSo here you are, in your twenties, thinking that you’ll have another 40 years to go.
ADRIAN TANIn loving someone, we become inspired to better ourselves in every way.
ADRIAN TANThere are a great many bad people in the world, and if you are not offending them, you must be bad yourself.
ADRIAN TANTt continues while we’re still trying to figure out the point of it. And it ends long before we’ve worked out just what to do.
ADRIAN TANThere is admiration, learning, attraction and something which, for the want of a better word, we call happiness.
ADRIAN TANFind that pursuit that will energize you, consume you, become an obsession.
ADRIAN TANLoving someone has great benefits.
ADRIAN TANYou either don’t, or you do with every cell in your body, completely and utterly, without reservation or apology. It consumes you, and you are reborn, all the better for it.
ADRIAN TANBe hated. One does not have to be evil to be hated. In fact, it’s often the case that one is hated precisely because one is trying to do right by one’s own convictions.
ADRIAN TANI’m here to tell you this. Forget about your life expectancy.
ADRIAN TANEach day, you must rise with a restless enthusiasm. If you don’t, you are working.
ADRIAN TANYou are not doing it to be loved back. Its value is to inspire you.
ADRIAN TANIt is far too easy to be liked, one merely has to be accommodating and hold no strong convictions.
ADRIAN TANYou will also find that it is no great tragedy if your love is not reciprocated.
ADRIAN TANThen one will gravitate towards the centre and settle into the average. That cannot be your role.
