One does nothing who tries to console a despondent person with word. A friend is one who aids with deeds at a critical time when deeds are called for.

Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead for the future.

Hope is itself a species of happiness, and, perhaps, the chief happiness, which this world affords.

Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.

Music is where I'm still. It's where I'm focused. It's such a joy. I'd like to make it a big part of my life.
