Short Lines


"In this everchanging universe, there is only one light that will never fade away: Hope."

"You don't always have to know the right way. Sometimes it's just enough to know which one is wrong."

"Reading Is Dreaming. Writing is Dreams Coming True."

"Sometimes you have to face situations where it seems that you are lost and every fight is futile. But remember that, only when you give up on your hope, everything is over!"

"Every moment brings us a few seconds closer to the fulfillment of our dreams."

"The reason for so much injustice in the world is not that there are so many people committing it, but rather that there are so many people accepting it."

"Some people think that giving up and accepting fate is a truly stong gesture. But giving up is never strong. It's always the easiest and most comfortable, but not neccessarily the right way."

"Unhappiness and dissatisfaction are matters of decision. When it rains outside, you can either get angry and unhappy for getting all wet, or praise the spirits for the full load of fresh water that brings new life. Picking the first way, you will always be discontented with something. Picking the latter, you will find good in everything."

"Optimism doesn't make the world better - but it will make it more beautiful to the eye."

"You call me naive because I'm a dreamer? I call you foolish for not being one! Because every little step in world's history, that brought mankind forward, started with the dream of one single man. Without 'foolish' dreamers, you wouldn't have medication, you wouldn't have democracy, you wouldn't have electricity and the lightbulb, and you would still think that the earth was a plate with the sun circling around it."

"I'll be happy once I get a car/$1.000.000/a boat/... I hear many people start their sentences that way. The truth is, that it is a curse. Chasing material goods will never make you happy, it will just make you satisfied for a split second before your greed for something else awakes. It's an endless chase, a vicious circle. Happiness doesn't depend on material goods, on the contrary. It is destroyed by them!"
