Fear cuts deeper than swords.

The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

Receive without conceit$$$ release without struggle.

How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it.

To be alive and to be a writer is enough.

This is not a letter but my arms about you for a brief moment.

The mind I love must have wild places.

Music awakens time$$$ awakens us to our finest enjoyment of time.

Of Paradise I cannot speak properly$$$ for I have not been there; and that I regret.

You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being.
