Most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.

Curiosity is idle only to those who fail to realize that it may be a very rare and indispensable thing.

We are incredibly heedless in the formation of our beliefs, but find ourselves filled with an illicit passion for them when anyone proposed to rob us of their companionship.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I don't like to get in front of people.
