In some way, however small and secret, each of us is a little mad...Everyone is lonely at bottom and cries to be understood, but we can never entirely understand someone else, and each of us remains part stranger even to those who love us... It is the weak who are cruel; gentleness is only expected from the strong...Those who do not know fear are not really brave because courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined...You can understand people better if you look at them in the eye-no matter how old or impressive they may be- as if they are children. Most of us never mature, we simply grow taller... Happiness comes only when we push our brains, and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable...Purpose of life is to matter-to count to stand for something, to have it make some difference that we lived at all.
