1
On love: If you give your life as a wholehearted response to love, then love will wholeheartedly respond to you.
2
On success: Nothing liberates our greatness like the desire to help, the desire to serve.
3
On connecting: The flip side to being attracted to unavailable people is how bored you are by available people. Available people are terrifying because they want to hang around long enough to know you, to like you, to accept you. The problem is not that you attract unavailable people-the problem is that you give them your number.
