The number of chances you give someone doesn't tell the world how loving you are without telling them how desperate you are to believe they care as much as you. True love resides in the first chance, stupidity in the second, opportunists in the third and scoundrels in the fourth.

When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending.

A liar will not be believed even when he speaks the truth.

I hope you don't mind that I put down in words, how wonderful life is while you're in the world.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Seek the pleasure in what you're doing rather than in how it might ultimately benefit you.

Nobody else can demean me. I can only demean myself.

They say that women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.

Happiness can exist only in acceptance.

Expect change. Analyze the landscape. Take the opportunities. Stop being the chess piece; become the player. It's your move.
