It is not inertia alone that is responsible for human relationships repeating themselves from case to case, indescribably monotonous and unrenewed: it is shyness before any sort of new, unforeseeable experience with which one does not think oneself able to cope. But only someone who is ready for everything, who excludes nothing, not even the most enigmatical will live the relation to another as something alive.
R. M. Rilke

“Disappointments are to the soul what the thunder-storm is to the air”

Friedrich von Schiller

"Judge yourself if you feel the need
Just let me known to be
In search of the truth myself
There is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if its yours or mine."

"A hug is like a boomerang - you get it back right away." - Bil Keane
I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

I am the shoreline, but you're the sea...

If you think things can't get any worse, you lack sufficient imagination.

I shall be being it."

I might replace "lived" with "given", but still. Good words to try and live by.

"You have never really lived until you have done something for someone who can never repay you."

Yeah.

Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.
