“Love is only known by him who hopelessly persists in love.”

Opposition always inflames the enthusiast, never converts him.

This is the curse of an evil deed, that it incites and must bring forth more evil.

It is at the approach of extreme danger when a hollow puppet can accomplish nothing, that power falls into the mighty hands of nature, of the spirit giant-born, who listens only to himself, and knows nothing of compacts.

Life did not present its sunny side to thee.

Of all the possessions of this life fame is the noblest; when the body has sunk into the dust the great name still lives.

Courage, ne’er by sorrow broken! Aid where tears of virtue flow; Faith to keep each promise spoken! Truth alike to friend and foe!

The lemonade is weak, like your soul.

Chains of iron or of silk-both are chains.

Deeper meaning resides in the fairy tales told to me in my childhood than in the truth that is taught by life.

It is only through the morning gate of the beautiful that you can penetrate into the realm of knowledge. That which we feel here as beauty we shall one day know as truth.

Disappointments are to the soul what a thunderstorm is to the air.

There is more to life than just existing and having a pleasant time.

It does not prove a thing to be right because the majority say it is so.

A virtuous name is the precious only good, for which queens and peasants’ wives must contest together.

When you make a commitment, you create hope. When you keep a commitment you create trust!

I’ve done only things I’ve liked, and I’m happy that others have liked them, too. I hope it keeps going that way. But l would never want to do films which please just one set of audience; they should connect with everyone.

My advice to young entrepreneurs is not to accept defeat in the face of odds, and challenge negative forces with hope, self-confidence and conviction.

Hope is wishing for something to come true. Faith is belief that it will come true. Believe that for every problem God gives you, He will also provide you with a solution.

In each passing day, I hope I love you less but somehow this love stays and my heart is yours nonetheless.

This spring along with flowers, I hope you bloom as my love has, one season too soon.

Challenge negative forces with hope, self-confidence and conviction. I believe that ambition and initiative will ultimately triumph.

Attitude keeps me going or cripples my progress. It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hopes. When my attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me.
