My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive;... - Maya Angelou

"Love is like a virus. It can happen to anybody at any time."

"First best is falling in love. Second best is being in love. Least best is falling out of love. But any of it is better than never having been in love."

"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style."

"In the flush of love's light, we dare be brave. And suddenly we see that love costs all we are, and will ever be. Yet it is only love which sets us free."

"My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return."
