"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate now knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares."
"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
"Believe in yourself and in the beauty of your dreams. Ignore those who try to discourage you. Avoid negative sources, people, places, things and habits. Don't give up and don't give in."
