Quotes
But life is not fair in proportion to one's suffering.
What's the point of making the same mistake more than once?
As old as the earth and as young as the future.
There's no such thing as a peaceful life.
The heart has its own memory, and I have forgotten nothing.
Dreams can be so vivid they seem like waking life.
Sometimes the only way to learn is to let the world teach you.
A man's heart can be the most dangerous thing he carries.
There are moments when the heart is generous, and then it knows the ultimate secrets.
The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly.
To survive in this world, you have to be stubborn and resilient.
Memories are like a line drawn in the dirt. Sometimes they vanish with a breeze.
