“Age doesn’t protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.”

“To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly embrace your solitude.”

“You don't have to be a wreck. You don't have to be sick. One's aim in life should be to die in good health. Just like a candle that burns out.”

“Living is risking.”

“I work more now because at this time of my life I am not disturbed from my aim by outside pressures such as family, passionate relationships, dealing with 'who am I?' - those complications when one is searching for one's self.”

“I don't think success is harmful as so many people say. Rather I believe it indispensible to talent: if for nothing else than to increase the talent.”

“Age does not protect you from love. But love to some extent protects you from age.”

“Age does not protect you from love but love to some extent protects you from age.”

“For me it's not possible to forget and I don't understand people who when the love is ended can bury the other person in hatred or oblivion. For me a man I have loved becomes a kind of brother.”

“Age doesn’t protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.”
