The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.

We are what we imagine. Our very existence consists in our imagination of ourselves.

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

The rose and the thorn, and sorrow and gladness are linked together.

You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend, or not.

It is because I dive into the abyss that I am beginning to love the abyss I am made of.

A flower falls, even though we love it; and a weed grows, even though we do not love it.
