The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

All everything that I understand I understand only because I love.

I believe in the compelling power of love. I do not understand it. I believe it to be the most fragrant blossom of all this thorny existence.

I haven't understood a bar of music in my life but I have felt it.

Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.

I blame my mother for my poor sex life. All she told me was 'the man goes on top and the woman underneath.' For three years my husband and I slept in bunk beds.

I haven't lived a perfect life. I have regrets. But that's from a lifetime of taking chances making decisions and trying not to be frozen. The only thing that I can do with my regrets is understand them.

Be patient and understanding. Life is too short to be vengeful or malicious.

My mother wanted us to understand that the tragedies of your life one day have the potential to be comic stories the next.

There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living.
