# You can't get there from here, and besides, there's no place else to go.
# We are all already dying, and we will be dead for a long time.
# Nothing lasts.
# There is no way of getting all you want.
# You can't have anything unless you let go of it.
# You only get to keep what you give away.
# There is no particular reason why you lost out on some things.
# The world is not necessarily just.  Being good often does not pay off and there is no compensation for misfortune.
# You have a responsibility to do your best nonetheless.
# It is a random universe to which we bring meaning.
# You don't really control anything.
# You can't make anyone love you.
# No one else is any stronger or any weaker than anyone else.
# Everyone is, in his own way, vulnerable.
# There are no great men.
# If you have a hero look again:  you have diminished yourself in some way.
# Everyone lies, cheats and pretends.  (Yes, you too, and most certainly, I myself.)
# All evil is potential vitality in need of transformation.
# All of you is worth something, if you only own it.
# Progress is an illusion.
# Evil can be displaced but never eradicated, as all solutions breed new problems.
# Yet, it is necessary to keep on struggling toward solutions.
# Childhood is a nightmare.
# But it is so very hard to be an on-your-own-take-care-of-yourself-cause-there-is-no-one-else-to-do-it-for-you grown up.
# Each of us is ultimately alone.
# The most important things, each man must do for himself.
# Love is not enough, but it sure helps.
# We have only ourselves, and one another.  That may not be much, but that is all there is.
# How strange, that so often it all seems worth it.
# We must live within the ambiguity of partial freedom, partial power, and partial knowledge.
# All important decisions must be made on the basis of insufficient data.
# Yet we are responsible for everything we do.
# No excuses will be accepted.
# You can run, but you can't hide.
# It is most important to run out of scapegoats.
# We must learn the power of living with our helplessness.
# The only victory lies in surrender with ourselves.
# All of the significant battles are waged within the self.
# You are free to do whatever you like.  You need only face the consequences.
# What do you know...for sure...anyway?
# Learn to forgive yourself, again and again and again and again...
