Everyone says that love hurts, but that's not true. Loneliness hurts, rejection hurts, losing someone hurts. Everyone confuses these things with love; but in reality, love is the only thing that covers up all the pain and makes us feel wonderful again.

When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life

Life must be understood backward, but it must be lived forward.

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.

The real purpose of our existence is not to make a living, but to make a life; a worthy, well-rounded, useful life.

My only relief is to sleep. When I’m sleeping, I’m not sad, I’m not angry, I’m not lonely, I’m nothing.

Some people turn sad awfully young. No special reason, it seems, but they seem almost to be born that way. They bruise easier, tire faster, cry quicker, remember longer and, as I say, get sadder younger than anyone else in the world. I know, for I’m one of them.

Change can be terrifying, overwhelming, and even sad. And yet, it’s the thing that carries us to whatever amazing thing is next. And there is always a next, amazing thing.

Anyone who falls in love is searching for the missing pieces of themselves. So anyone who's in love gets sad when they think of their lover. It's like stepping back inside a room you have fond memories of, one you haven't seen in a long time.

You know that when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul.

Love easily confuses us because it is always in flux between illusion and substance, between memory and wish, between contentment and need.

We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood.

You fall in love, it's intoxicating, and for a little while you feel like you've actually become one with the other person. Merged souls, and so on. You think you'll never be lonely again. Only it doesn't last and soon you realize you can only get so close, and you end up brutally disappointed, more alone than ever, because the illusion -the hope you'd held on to all those years-has been shattered.

Freedom only exists when love is present.That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.

Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.

When the power of love overpowers the love of power, the world will know peace.

The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend.

You can't blame gravity for falling in love.
