“You know, it’s not fair. Women are judged inferior until we prove ourselves, and men are judged superior until they prove what assholes they are.”
“To find riches is a beggar’s dream, but to find love is the dream of kings.”
“Just remember, when someone has an accent, it means that he knows one more language than you do.”
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
“The future was clay, to be moulded day by day, but the past was bedrock, immutable.”
“A blank piece of paper is God’s way of telling us how hard it is to be God.”
