“Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside.”

“The loneliness you feel with another person, the wrong person, is the loneliest of all.”

“One needs time to free oneself of wrong convictions. If it happens too suddenly, they go on festering.”

“The only thing wrong with immortality is that it tends to go on forever, but what's wrong with that, really?”

“If you don’t have a dog--at least one--there is not necessarily anything wrong with you, but there may be something wrong with your life.”

“To the wrongs that need resistance, To the right that needs assistance, To the future in the distance, Give yourselves.”
