work like you don't need the money... love like you've never been hurt.. and dance like nobody's watching.

dream as if you'll live forever. live as if you'll die today

you don't get to choose how you're going to die. or when. you can only decide how you're going to live. now.

do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail

when you were born, you were cryin and everyone around you was smiling. live your life so that when you die, you are smiling and everyone around you is crying.

the best way to escape from a problem is to solve it.

reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. dream deep, for every dream precedes it goal.

following the noble path is like entering a dark room with a light in the hand; the darkness will all be cleared away, and the room will be filled with light.

a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.

a smile is a curve that can set things straight

even the smallest candle burns brighter in the dark.

death twitches my ear, 'live,' he says, 'i am coming.'

90% of being smart is knowing what you're dumb at.

better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot.

if everyone is thinking alike then somebody isn't thinking.

it's so simple to be wise. just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.

the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.

to the world you are just a person, but to a person you can be the world.

you don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her.

whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is most important that you do it.

absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire.

love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.

love doesn't make the world go 'round. love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

do not marry a person that you know you can live with; only marry someone that you cannot live without.

if you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always your. and if they don't, they never were.

a clay pot sitting in the sun will always be a clay pot. it has to go through the white hot heat of the furnace to become porcelain.
