I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.

One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.

Things don't change. You change your way of looking, that's all.

The time we waste trying to find out what life is all about could be spent loving someone and finding out.

The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.

There are times when even the greatest tactician in diplomatic cunning is outclassed in his own game. It is then that he discovers that all that he thought he had gained is but loss, and that what is left of national honor and dignity is but the shadow of an illustrious past that is gone forever, or of a potentially great future that will never come.
