There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Death is softer by far than tyranny
When someone shows you who they are believe them; the first time
Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood
Do not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety, after all it is only in the darkest nights that stars shine more brightly
Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again
Principles have no real force except when one is well-fed
