When I had nothing to lose, I had everything. When I stopped being who I am, I found myself.[Quando eu não tive nada a perder, eu tive tudo. Quando deixei de ser quem era, encontrei-me a mim mesma.]
What we seek we shall find; what we flee from flees from us.
What can be shown cannot be said.[Was gezeigt werden kann, kann nicht gesagt werden.]
We see flowers of good blooming in foul places.
We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right.
We know that we have looked back through the ivory gates into that world of wonder which was ours before we were wise and unhappy.
We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky.
We are made wise not by the recollections of our past, but by the responsibilities of our future.
True enough, none so deaf as those who will not hear.[Qu’il n’y a point de pires sourds que ceux qui ne veulent point entendre.]
Too much wit makes the world rotten.
To understand the actual world as it is, not as we should wish it to be, is the beginning of wisdom.
To talk much about oneself may also be a means of concealing oneself.[Viel von sich reden kann auch ein Mittel sein, sich zu verbergen.]
