"To those who are given much, much is expected."

"Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope."

"There is a very fine line between loving life and being greedy for it."

"If I'm the people's poet, then I ought to be in people's hands - and, I hope, in their heart."
