“The past is not what it was.”

“These are the days when the Christian is expected to praise every creed except his own.” 

“In the struggle for existence, it is only on those who hang on for ten minutes after all is hopeless, that hope begins to dawn.”

“A fad or heresy is the exaltation of something which even if true, is secondary or temporary in its nature against those things which are essential and eternal, those things which always prove themselves true in the long run. In short, it is the setting up of the mood against the mind.”

“A strange fanaticism fills our time: the fanatical hatred of morality, especially of Christian morality.” 

I'm very emotional; I think I may go mad in several years' time.

I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart. I was born to take care of you every single day of my life.

I always knew I was a star, and now the rest of the world seems to agree with me.

I'm very emotional; I think I may go mad in several years' time.

In the early days, we just wore black onstage. Very bold, my dear. Then we introduced white, for variety, and it simply grew and grew.

You're headed for disaster cos you never read the signs Too much love will kill you every time

What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, not to anticipate the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.

I'd wanted to be famous for as long as I could remember.

Over the years, I learned that in my career, unlike in life, sometimes my wheelchair is its own automatic door opener. I was able to win the OWN competition by applying one simple principle: be funny, and admit you suck before anyone else can call you out on it. In other words, make the narrative of your failure a comedy.

What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: Our life is the creation of our mind.

“Hatred does not cease through hatred at any time. Hatred ceases through love. This is an unalterable law.”

Hatred does not cease through hatred at any time. Hatred ceases through love. This is an unalterable law.

“The trouble is, you think you have time.”

“The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live.”

Ardently do today what must be done. Who knows? Tomorrow, death comes.

Make peace with the universe. Take joy in it. It will turn to gold. Resurrection will be now. Every moment, a new beauty.

Come out of the circle of time and into the circle of love.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
