"Why is it better to love than be loved? It is surer."

-- Sacha Guitry

“I still believe one of the most important choices is how we treat others. What good does it do you to build a huge muscular, impressive body if you are small and underdeveloped on the inside?Â Iâ€™ve always felt that success begins on the inside and reaching our true potential gets blocked when we are small-spirited.”
“You cannot love an employee into creativity, although you can ... avoid his dissatisfactions with the way you treat him.”
“To say that a being who is sentient has no interest in continuing to live is like saying that a being with eyes has no interest in continuing to see. Deathâ€”however â€œhumaneâ€â€”is a harm for humans and nonhumans alike.”
“One piece of advice can be universally handed out, and it applies equally to speaking, understanding, reading, and writing. If in the course of any of these language activities, you run across words whose meaning or use baffles you, don't by-pass them. Look them up in the dictionary and familiarize yourself with them.”
“Christian love, which applies to all, even to one's enemies, is the worst adversary of Communism.”
“It is pointless to get your knickers in a twist if a certain person fails to react the way you want. It is best to avoid people and situations that you know drive you crazy. Remember to vote with your feet. If a situation is untenable or unchangeable, walk away.”

“What we earnestly aspire to be, that in some sense we are.”
“Kill me, I don't care. I do not want to be on this Earth anymore.”
