Pranzammo a Torre Annunziata con la tavola disposta proprio in riva al mare. Tutti coloro erano felici d'abitare in quei luoghi, alcuni affermavano che senza la vista del mare sarebbe impossibile vivere. A me basta che quell'immagine rimanga nel mio spirito.

Lose/Win people bury a lot of feelings. And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.

Stephen Covey

You couldn't erase the past. You couldn't even change it. But sometimes life offered you the opportunity to put it right.

Ann Brashares

You may feel like dwelling on your limits or your fears. Don't do it. A perfect prescription for a squandered, unfulfilled life is to accommodate self-defeating feelings while undercutting your finest, most productive ones.

Marsha Sinetar

Also, in a funny way, if you have been happily married there are no unresolved areas, nothing to prove to yourself after the other dies.

Nigella Lawson

Once in a while you start having second thoughts, then you read a letter from someone that lifts your spirits so much - it really makes a huge difference. I love reading them.

Corbin Bleu

He uses his folly like a stalking-horse, and under the presentation of that he shoots his wit.

William Shakespeare

I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me. He said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet.

Rodney Dangerfield

The real contest is always between what you've done and what you're capable of doing. You measure yourself against yourself and nobody else.

Geoffrey Gaberino

Dead, we are revealed in our true dimensions, and they are surprisingly modest.

Michael Cunningham

Men would live exceedingly quiet if these two words, mine and thine, were taken away.

Anaxagoras

Life is a lot like jazz... it's best when you improvise.

George Gershwin

It's good for everyone to understand that they are to love their enemies, simply because your enemies show you things about yourself you need to change. So in actuality enemies are friends in reverse.

Gary Busey
