"Maybe ever’body in the whole damn world is scared of each other."
- John Steinbeck
"I’ve learned that you can’t make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them. I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back. And it’s not the end of the world .. maybe! .. but it is for some."
"Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it"
- Buddha
"Most of us spend our lives living in a kind of insular trance. We are essentially asleep to the world."
