Poetry is nearer to vital truth than history. - Plato

"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle."

"He was a wise man who invented God."

"We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light."

"Life must be lived as play."

"Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet."
