“It is by not always thinking of yourself, if you can manage it, that you might somehow be happy. Until you can make room in your life for someone as important to you as yourself, you will always be searching and lost….”

“Yo can always take back the lost parts of yourself if you can find and recognize them.”

“But the worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself; you ambush yourself in caverns and forests.”

“Always be yourself, unless you can be Batman, always be Batman.”

“I've found that there is always some beauty left — in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you. Look at these things, then you find yourself again, and God, and then you regain your balance. A person who's happy will make others happy; a person who has courage and faith will never die in misery!”

“A lot of people, they think, ‘Oh, I’m only going to be happy when I find a special person who is going to make me happy.’ No. In life, you have to be happy with yourself first, number one. When you’re happy with yourself, you have to find another person who is happy with herself so you can share your happiness.”

“However much you love somebody, you should always keep a part of yourself to yourself. Never give it all. You can never be yourself otherwise.”

“In marriage, until you can truly trust your life partner completely, you will always be filled with suspicion, jealousy and doubt. You will not truly feel the meaning of happiness in married life.”

“By accepting yourself and being fully what you are, your presence can make others happy.”

“… because if you can make yourself happy in the rain then you're doing pretty alright in life.”
