I used to know you the best and now I don't even remember your name.

Mya Waechtler

It's pain that changes our lives.

Steve Martin

Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.

Carl Jung

Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Night is chaos, the realm of dreams, teeming with ghosts and demons as the oceans teem with fish and sea monsters.

Wolfgang Schievelbusch

Only three things are infinite: the sky in its stars, the sea in its drops of water, and the heart in its tears.

Gustav Flaubert
