“I saw the world. I learnt of new cultures. I flew across an ocean. I wore women’s clothing. Made a friend. Fell in love. Who cares if I lost a wager?”

However, everything has an end, everything passes away, even the hunger of people who have not eaten

I can undertake and persevere even without hope of success.

Reality provides us with facts so romantic that imagination itself could add nothing to them.

It seems wisest to assume the worst from the beginning, and let anything better come as a surprise.

On the earth, even in the darkest night, the light never wholly abandons his rule. It is diffused and subtle, but little as may remain, the retina of the eye is sensible of it.

An English criminal, you know is always better concealed in London than anywhere else.

When the mind once allows a doubt to gain entrance, the value of deeds performed grow less, their character changes, we forget the past and dread the future.

Anything you can imagine you can make real.

Scent is the soul of flowers, and sea flowers, as splendid as they may be, have no soul!

There is hope for the future, and when the world is ready for a new and better life, all these things will some day come to pass, – in God’s good time.

Self-care helps you stay grounded and be your best self for others.

I’d like to be remembered for being a good, kind, loving, gentle man who attempted to live wisely, and who cared a lot.

Love is a combination of care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect and trust.

Take care of the sense and the sounds will take care of themselves.

Caring for yourself is a journey, and it doesn’t start and end on the people’s judgment.

You will disappoint some people when you prioritize your self-care. 

Seek opportunities to show you care. The smallest gestures often make the biggest difference.
