Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts
We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out

I'm a greater believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it
The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live
