„Neduste sa navzájom. Nikto nedokáže rásť v tieni.“

„Najjednoduchšie na svete je byť sám sebou. Najťažšie je byť tým, kým ostatní chcú, aby ste boli. Nedovoľte im, aby vás dostali do takej pozície.“

„Jediná ruža môže byť mojou záhradou, jediný priateľ mojím svetom.“

„Skúšať znamená riskovať zlyhanie, ale treba riskovať, pretože najväčším hazardom v živote je nič neriskovať.“

„Nikdy si neidealizujte ostatných. Nikdy nesplnia vaše očakávania.“

„Láska je život a ak premrháme lásku, premrháme život.“

„Život je komédia pre tých, ktorí myslia a tragédia pre tých, ktorí cítia.“

„Pretože ľudia nedokážu oceniť prítomnosť a naplniť ju životom, túžia toľko po lepšej budúcnosti a koketujú toľko s minulosťou.“

„Sny nás povznášajú z pozemského každodenného života. Obohacujú našu budúcnosť o nové možnosti.“

„Život je dar, ktorý vám Boh dal. Spôsob, ako ho prežívate, je váš dar pre Boha.“

„Ľudská sexualita, ktorá je možno tým najvýznamnejším prejavom hlboko preciťovanej blízkosti, stratila počas doby svoju spriaznenosť s láskou.“

„Sexualita je dôležitou súčasťou vzťahu medzi mužom a ženou, ale to v žiadnom prípade nie je jediný alebo najdôležitejšie spôsob, ako prejaviť svoju lásku k partnerovi.“

„Vím jistě, že lidi, které milujeme, nikdy neztrácíme, ani v okamžiku smrti. Nadále se podílejí na každém našem činu, myšlence a rozhodnutí. Jejich láska zanechává v našich myšlenkách nesmazatelnou stopu. Vědomí, že naše životy byly obohaceny jejich láskou, nám poskytuje útěchu.“

„Skutočné odpustenie je prejavom najvyššieho stupňa ľudského počínania.“

„Sen je súčasťou nášho súkromia. Je čosi zvláštneho v tom, zdieľať svoje súkromie s ľuďmi, ktorých milujeme. Je to len ďalší spôsob, ako sa dať druhým spoznať.“

„Milujúci človek nemusí byť dokonalý, iba ľudský.“

„Pripomína, aby sme jeden druhému práve teraz povedali, že ho milujeme.“

„Radosť, humor, smiech - to sú úžasné, ľahko prístupné prostriedky, ktoré vnášajú do ľudského vzťahu pohodu. Možno ich použiť na prekonanie zábran a napätia.“

„Smiech je ten najistejší prostriedok, ako sa zblížiť s ostatnými ľuďmi.“

„Smrť je výzva, aby sme nestrácali čas….. Pripomína, aby sme jeden druhému práve teraz povedali, že ho milujeme.“

„Váš talent je pre vás Božím darom. To, čo s ním urobíte, je váš dar pre Boha.“

“We live in a small world. Not a leaf falls that doesn't affect a myriad of things. When we reach out to someone in love and the effect is made — everyone, everything which comes in contact with the person we've effected is better for it. Of course, the converse is true, too.”

“I don't believe in unconditional love. In fact, I think it's unwise. My love has had a condition that if ever my love keeps you from you, from your growing, and realizing your personal potential, then I must step aside. No one has the right to stand in the way of another's joy, development, or unique perceptions.”

“I have learned that love is the most powerful force available to us. When we have real love we have the strength to perform miracles.”

“A life of love is one of continual growth, where the doors and windows of experience are always open to the wonder and magic that life offers. To love is to risk living fully.”

“People are not here to meet your expectations.”

“As soon as the love relationship does not lead me to me, as soon as I in a love relationship do not lead another person to himself, this love, even if it seems to be the most secure and ecstatic attachment I have ever experienced, is not true love. For real love is dedicated to continual becoming.”

“Who is the loving person? The loving person is the person who loves him or herself. I say this so often, and people say, "Oh yes, you're so right," but they don't do it! You will never be able to love anyone else until you love yourself. Even With your Fat Thighs!”

“We take love for granted. We assume we are all perfect lovers and all we need do is wait and our love will grow and blossom as readily as a flower in spring. Not so. Love doesn't grow unless we do. It takes patience, knowledge, experience, determination, and every positive trait we possess. In addition, love is always changing and unless we stay aware and change with it, it eludes us.”

“Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lies man's only promise.”

“We can ask ourselves daily what we have done to make the world a better place, to make someone smile, to help someone to feel more secure, etc. It's the simple things which have the greatest effect. We must never underestimate the strength of a smile or act of kindness.”

“I will love you no matter what. I will love you if you are stupid, if you slip and fall on your face, if you do the wrong thing, if you make mistakes, if you behave like a human being——I will love you no matter.”

“We are all born with God-given, unique traits and skills. But, as with all possibilities they will remain unrealized unless they are developed, nurtured, and put into practice. You may have the "capacity" to love, but if left undeveloped, you will never gain the "ability."”

“To love oneself is to struggle to rediscover and maintain your uniqueness. It is understanding and appreciating the idea that you will be the only you to ever live upon this earth, that when you die so will all of your fantastic possibilities. It is the realization that even you are not totally aware of the wonders which lie dormant within yourself.”

“Perfect love is rare indeed — for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of the certain.”

“The essence of love is getting out of oneself and into others. When we care less about our feelings, our rights, our happiness, our security, etc., and begin to concern ourselves with the feelings, rights, happiness, and security of others, we will have found the true power of love.”

“You can't imagine the joy I feel when I hear that something I've said or done or written has helped others to regain their sense of dignity, to motivate them to develop their unique potential, to encourage them to reach out to others in love.”

“We need others. We need others to love and we need to be loved by them. There is no doubt that without it, we too, like the infant left alone, would cease to grow, cease to develop, choose madness and even death.”

“We need not be afraid to touch, to feel, to show emotion. The easiest thing in the world is to be what you are, what you feel. The hardest thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don’t let them put you in that position.”

“It is when we ask for love less and begin giving it more that the basis of human love is revealed to us.”

“I will love you no matter what.”

“Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations.”

“Don't smother each other. No one can grow in the shade.”

“Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.”
