“The world is mere change, and this life, opinion.”

For outward show is a wonderful perverter of the reason.

The sexual embrace can only be compared with music and with prayer.

No one loses any other life than the one he now lives, nor does one live any other life than that which he will lose.

What we do now echoes in eternity.

The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.

Do not disturb yourself by picturing your life as a whole.

Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together,but do so with all your heart.

We’re all going to change. Otherwise, it’s boring. Who wants to stay the damn same all their life?

No one can change yesterday, but we can all change tomorrow.

As I open my eyes and realizing I changed. Not the same deranged child stuck up in the game.

Right now, I do not like kids at all. I mean, I love my fans and everything, but when you have kids following you around all day, it’s like, ‘Ugh, kids!’ Maybe that will change when I get older.
