I'm in trouble because I'm normal and slightly arrogant. A lot of people don't like themselves and I happen to be totally in love with myself.

We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love - first to their advantage then to their disadvantage.

We never know the love of a parent till we become parents ourselves.

Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.

The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others and the delight in the recognition.

When we are in love we seem to ourselves quite different from what we were before.

It's surprising how many persons go through life without ever recognizing that their feelings toward other people are largely determined by their feelings toward themselves and if you're not comfortable within yourself you can't be comfortable with others.

We must declare ourselves become known allow the world to discover this subterranean life of ours which connects kings and farm boys artists and clerks. Let them see that the important thing is not the object of love but the emotion itself.

We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly we should die.

Judgments value judgments concerning life for or against can in the last resort never be true: they possess value only as symptoms they come into consideration only as symptoms - in themselves such judgments are stupidities.

Is life not a thousand times too short for us to bore ourselves?

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. Is not life a hundred times too short for us to bore ourselves?

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained.

True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life ourselves and the world around us.

Our entire life - consists ultimately in accepting ourselves as we are.

Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.

We need to give each other the space to grow to be ourselves to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas openness dignity joy healing and inclusion.

Vigorous enforcement of copyrights themselves is an important part of the picture. But I don't think that expanding the legal definition of copyright outside of actual copyright infringement is the right move.

Once the attacks occur as we learned on Sept. 11 it is too late. It makes little sense to deprive ourselves of an important and legal means to detect and prevent terrorist attacks while we are still in the middle of a fight to the death with al Qaeda.

We get information in the mail the regular postal mail encrypted or not vet it like a regular news organization format it - which is sometimes something that's quite hard to do when you're talking about giant databases of information - release it to the public and then defend ourselves against the inevitable legal and political attacks.

I think people should have the legal right to hurt themselves without fearing that they're going to get locked up for doing so. But on a personal level if someone I loved was hurting himself or herself in front of me I would of course try to restrain them.

If the laws could speak for themselves they would complain of the lawyers in the first place.
