"Why didn't I learn to treat everything like it was the last time. My greatest regret was how much I believed in the future."

"So many people enter and leave your life! Hundreds of thousands of people! You have to keep the door open so they can come in! But it also means you have to let them go!"

"I regret that it takes a life to learn how to live."

"Parents are always more knowledgeable than their children, and children are always smarter than their parents."

"...people with nothing to declare carry the most."
