~The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship.~
~ To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self... this is to have succeeded.~
~My soul may be returned to the heavens but my heart will remain with you for all eternity.~
Ralph Waldo Emerson
~ It's better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right ~
~Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.~
~ Happy marriages begin when we marry the ones we love, and they blossom when we love the ones we marry.
~ Love at first sight is easy to understand; it's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle. ~
~ Law and justice are not always the same. When they aren't, destroying the law may be the first step toward changing it. ~
~ You can only protect your liberties in this world by protecting the other man's freedom. You can only be free if I am free. ~
~ Before you can inspire with emotion, you must be swamped with it yourself. Before you can move their tears, your own must flow. To convince them, you must yourself believe. ~
~ The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof. ~
