Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive... - Eleanor Roosevelt

"It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know. We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death."

"You must do the things you think you cannot do."

"Happiness is not a goal...it's a by-product of a life well lived."

"I have never felt that anything really mattered but knowing that you stood for the things in which you believed and had done the very best you could."

"Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world."
