Love finds you in the strangest places, and hope clings to us in the nooks and crannies we never think to look.
One is never ready for success. It consecrates and looses you at the same time.
Passion surprises. One doesn't search it. It can happen to you tomorrow.
You protect your being when you love yourself better. That's the secret.
I think that we all carry the divine within us.
Passion is all but soft, it's not tender, it's violence to which you get hooked by pleasure.
I want to work beyond external aggressions, forget that one has something to do for others if it's not for oneself.
I think four Olympics is probably enough. Five Olympics is a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that if I'm into it and I'm healthy and my priorities can fit around that.
If you would serve your brother it is fit for you to serve him, do not take back your words when you find that prudent people do not commend you. Be true to your own act, and congratulate yourself if you have done something strange and extravagant and broken the monotony of a decorous age.

Most Americans are aware of the brutality and injustice used to maintain the excesses of their selfish consumer society and empire. Yet I suspect. . . they do not care. They don’t want to see what is done in their name. They do not want to look at the rows of flag-draped coffins, the horribly maimed bodies and faces of veterans, or the human suffering in the blighted and deserted former manufacturing centers. It is too upsetting. Government and corporate censorship is therefore welcomed and appreciated.
