Now I know I've got a heart because it is breaking. - Tin Man
(Man,) the glory and the scandal of the universe.
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.
Unless we love the truth we cannot know it.
Cold words freeze people, and hot words scorch them, and bitter words make them bitter, and wrathful words make them wrathful. Kind words also produce their own image on men's souls; and a beautiful image it is. They smooth, and quiet, and comfort the hearer.
Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.
Kind words do not cost much. They never blister the tongue or lips. They make other people good-natured. They also produce their own image on men's souls, and a beautiful image it is.
I base all of my relationships on trust, and I try to prove that trust to begin with, and so there isn't any question.
One bad review doesn't ruin my day because I realize what a badge of honor it is to get a bit of criticism at all.
If the present be compared with the remote past, it is easily seen that in all cities and in all peoples there are the same desires and the same passions as there always were.
So for you people who are filled with fear that I might someday be released: breathe easy, I don't see it happening.
