7 quotes
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
We are all like the bright moon, we still have our darker side.
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
The smallest act in the most limited circumstances bears the seed of boundless change.
