“We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation.”

When someone leaves, it’s because someone else is about to arrive.

Life always waits for some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant.

Anyone who loves in the expectation of being loved in return is wasting their time.

The strongest love is the love that can demonstrate its fragility.

Passion makes a person stop eating, sleeping, working, feeling at peace.

Sometimes, we are so attached to our way of life that we turn down wonderful opportunities simply because we don’t know what to do with it.

I’m not a body with a soul, I’m a soul that has a visible part called the body.

There is only one way to learn. It’s through action. Everything you need to know you have learned through your journey.

In real life, love has to be possible. Even if it is not returned right away, love can only survive when the hope exists that you will be able to win over the person you desire.

When you were in love, you were capable of learning everything and of knowing things you had never dared even to think, because love was the key to understanding all of the mysteries.

When I had nothing to lose, I had everything. When I stopped being who I am, I found myself.

We pretend to be strong because we are weak.

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.

Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself.

Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

If someone isn’t what others want them to be, the others become angry. Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

Before you judge people, judge yourself.

Don’t judge me. You know my name, but not my story.

The greatest lesson I learned that year in Mrs. Henry’s class was the lesson Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., tried to teach us all: Never judge people by the color of their skin. God makes each of us unique in ways that go much deeper.

In this world it is possible to achieve great material wealth, to live an opulent life. But a life built upon those things alone leaves a shallow legacy. In the end, we will be judged by other standards.

I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past.

By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.

If all you can do is judge a person by their appearance because you don’t have the spirit to judge someone from within, you’re in trouble.

Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating. By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.
