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

To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart
Write your Sad times in Sand, Write your Good times in Stone
The death of dogma is the birth of morality
I make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping
The world's big and I want to have a good look at it before it gets dark
I have far more confidence in the one man who works mentally and bodily at a matter than in the six who merely talk about it
