Contrary to general belief, I do not believe that friends are necessarily the people you like best, they are merely the people who got there first.
The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.
Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.
Everyone is necessarily the hero of his own life story.
Therefore, dear Sir, love your solitude and try to sing out with the pain it causes you. For those who are near you are far away... and this shows that the space around you is beginning to grow vast.... be happy about your growth, in which of course you can't take anyone with you, and be gentle with those who stay behind; be confident and calm in front of them and don't torment them with your doubts and don't frighten them with your faith or joy, which they wouldn't be able to comprehend. Seek out some simple and true feeling of what you have in common with them, which doesn't necessarily have to alter when you yourself change again and again; when you see them, love life in a form that is not your own and be indulgent toward those who are growing old, who are afraid of the aloneness that you trust.... and don't expect any understanding; but believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.
Life is not like water. Things in life don't necessarily flow over the shortest possible route.
If there is pain in my life or something that is wrong. I try to go to that place in me and write from there. I don’t necessarily write about the issue, but I write from the emotion.
Never expose yourself unnecessarily to danger; a miracle may not save you...and if it does, it will be deducted from your share of luck or merit.
