Tears shed for another person are not a sign of weakness. They are a sign of a pure heart.
Human relationships always help us to carry on because they always presuppose further developments, a future – and also because we live as if our only task was precisely to have relationships with other people.
I love America more than any other country in this world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.

Honesty and openness is always the foundation of insightful dialogue.
Oh, Mr. Thornton, I am not good enough!’
‘Not good enough! Don’t mock my own deep feeling of unworthiness.
No matter how dark the moment, love and hope are always possible.
No, this trick won’t work… How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?
Love is scary: it changes; it can go away. That’s the part of the risk. I don’t want to be scared anymore.
What do I care how ‘e looks? I am good-looking enough for both of us, I theenk! All these scars show is zat my husband is brave!
I have loved to the point of madness; that which is called madness, that which to me, is the only sensible way to love.
Like time suspended,
a wound unmended–
you and I.
We had no ending,
no said goodbye;
For all my life,
I’ll wonder why.
