| gptkbp:famousQuote |
It is better to be unhappy than to be happy in the wrong way.
Man is what he believes. The darker the night, the brighter the stars. The soul is healed by being with children. The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for. Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. What is hell? I maintain that it is the suffering of being unable to love. The best way to keep one's word is not to give it. To_live_without_Hope_is_to_Cease_to_live. Love_in_action_is_a_harsh_and_dreadful_thing_compared_to_love_in_dreams. |
